The Conference of Speakers of State Legislatures in Nigeria has welcomed the Senate’s passage of the State Police Bill for second reading.
They described it as a major step towards strengthening security and deepening federalism in the country.
The Chairman of the Conference and Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, Emomotimi Guwor, disclosed this in a statement issued on Thursday.
Guwor said the conference had consistently supported the establishment of state police, noting that community-based policing would improve security response and address local challenges more effectively.
