Osinbajo calls for creation of State Police
The Vice President professor Yemi Osinbajo has called for the creation of state police amid increasing security challenges in the country.
Osinbajo, according to Channels Television’s report, made the call on Thursday at a National Assembly security summit, as he believes this would help tighten security across the nation.
According to him, the state policing system is the way to go because having a centralized system – as is currently practised, cannot effectively secure the nation.
Despite calling for the creation of state police, Professor Osinbajo also wants the Nigerian Police Force to be strengthened and proposed that the current number of police in the country be tripled.
He also called for more funding for the police as well as other security agencies
