Lagos State Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu has congratulated President Bola Tinubu following the Senate’s passage of the constitutional amendment bill seeking the establishment of state police.
Sanwo-Olu, in a statement signed on Thursday, described the Senate’s approval of the bill’s 26 clauses as a landmark development in Nigeria’s democratic and security evolution.
He said the passage of the bill represented one of the most significant reforms of the nation’s security architecture, with the potential to strengthen grassroots policing and improve public safety.
The governor described the parliamentary approval as “epochal”, saying the development further demonstrated Tinubu’s long-standing commitment to true federalism and progressive governance in Nigeria.
“Today is a great day for our country and a moment to celebrate the triumph of genuine democratic and developmental ideas over parochial sentiments,” Sanwo-Olu said.
