The leader of Nigeria’s Senate, Opeyemi Bamidele is advocating that nation should explore state policing as the next available option, given the apparent failure of the central police force.
Delivering a distinguished personality lecture at the University of Ilorin, Kwara state, the senator argues that the establishment of the state police will mitigate Nigeria’s security challenges if proper
control mechanisms are put in place.
Many have argued for the establishment of state police to complement the federal policing architecture for effective security.
But for others, such may be misused by some governors for selfish reasons.
These conflicting trajectories among stakeholders made the university of Ilorin to organize this public lecture.
The leader of the Nigerian Senate, Senator Opeyemi Bamidele is the guest lecturer.
He argues that state police will go a long way to tackle the nation’s security challenges.
Senators from Kwara state also expressed their views on the subject matter.
