Yusuf Gadgi, a member of the House of Representatives, has warned that state police can’t be relied upon to oversee policing in the states.
Gadgi, who is the House Committee on Defense, made a statement on Tuesday’s Politics Today program on Channel 4.
The lawmaker argued that more effective community policing and that enraging governors would only make things worse insecurity.
However, he did point out that community policing with proper funding remained a safer choice than state policing.
The lawmaker called killings connected to transnational assaults “very unfortunate and tormenting”
Gadgi added that Plateau and other regions’ insecurity had worsened as a result of the fact that forest reserves had become “safe havens for bandits and kidnappers.”
He defended President Bola Tinubu’s administration, noting that it had supported security organizations and provided resources.
