RE: STATE POLICE

Following my motion at plenary on Tuesday on the Matter of Urgent Public Importance regarding the Oriire school kidnappings, the murder of Michael Oyedokun, and the urgent need for structural security reforms, I am delighted to share that the Presidency has announced that the constitutional framework for State Police is nearing completion.

At a meeting convened yesterday by the Presidency, the Chief of Staff to the President, Rt. Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, disclosed that the establishment of State Police requires careful consideration of constitutional and legal procedures. He further noted that significant progress has been made in recent weeks, with the process gaining substantial traction nationwide.

There is now a broad national consensus on the need for State Police, and I am optimistic that once the necessary constitutional amendments are concluded by the National Assembly, the required legislation and institutional framework for its implementation will swiftly follow.

As the saying goes, politics is local. I firmly believe that policing is equally local.

My long-standing advocacy for a decentralized policing and security architecture has reinforced my conviction that the establishment of State Police, Local Government policing units, decentralized courts, and an integrated national intelligence and surveillance network will strengthen grassroots security and significantly improve the protection of lives and property, which remains the fundamental essence of governance.

“Let’s not politicize these things.”

… on the Oriire school kidnappings and recent security concerns, Hon. Olamijuwonlo Alao-Akala urged stakeholders to put politics aside and focus on what truly matters — protecting lives, securing communities, and supporting affected families.

Moments like these demand collective action, not political division.
