Nigeria Edges Closer to State Police with Presidency Finalising Draft Amendment

Nigeria may soon see one of its biggest security reforms in decades. The Presidency has confirmed that the constitutional framework for creating State Police is almost ready. Chief of Staff Femi Gbajabiamila says extensive consultations between the Presidency, National Assembly and security agencies have made substantial progress. A draft constitutional amendment is expected soon. This shift marks a move away from debating whether State Police should exist. The focus now is on designing its structure to improve security and protect communities across the federation.
