A bill to introduce state police has passed its second reading in the House of Representatives.
The Constitution Amendment Bill which was sponsored by 13 members of the House, enjoyed support from a majority of the lawmakers in the green chamber who believed that concerns of political victimisation by state governors, should take the backseat to the current state of insecurity across the country.
Recall that only last week, President Bola Tinubu and 36 state governors considered the creation of state police as a solution to the menacing security challenges like kidnapping and banditry ubiquitous in the country.
