Why state police will not work in Nigeria yet – Nnamani
Chimaroke Nnamani, a former governor of Enugu State, has stated that state police is not the solution to the security challenges in Nigeria.
Speaking on Channels TV, Nnamani said that the factors that led to the abolition of regional police are still very much available.
According to the former governor, the only way state police can function effectively is if it was made to be uniform in all 36 states of the federation.
Nnamani said:
”Remember that we had some form of state police – regional police; we had an ordinance of 1916 that formerly established regional police. There were factors that led to the abolition of state police.
“All those factors that led to the abolition of the regional police and formal entry into the central police have not changed. Nigeria is organic, it is one unit and what that means is that if the eye is having a problem, the brain could have a problem.”
