State police

The Senate House of assembly has stated that Nigerians will be the ones to determine whether or not the country will adopt state and local policing as well as the type of system of government to run.

Spokesperson of the Senate, Yemi Adaramodu, who made this known maintained that the Senate could not form its opinion outside the views of Nigerians.

President Bola Tinubu had during a meeting with state governors agreed on the creation of state and community police systems to put an end to the menace of insecurity robbing the nation of its peace.

Adaramodu stated that the Senate has formed a committee to review the Constitution, and would allow it to carry out its full responsibilities.

He said the constituted committee which will  research extensively across every sector for a lasting solution, will have lawmakers from different states across the federation as members and the Deputy Senate President as the chairman.

Senator Adaramodu added that the Senate would not just form an opinion, but wait till the committee had interfaced with Nigerians, and brought back the feedback to the upper chamber.

In a similar vein, the House of Representatives called for inputs from Nigerians to shape the narratives ahead of the commencement of the constitutional amendment process.
