Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has come out to say that state police is one of the possible ways of checking insecurity in the country.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, establishing state police will be one enduring approach to addressing the festering insecurity in Nigeria, and he hopes it is embraced sooner rather than later.

Wike added that the Federal Government cannot stop this insecurity without state police, and the earlier they realize that fact, the better.

His words, “The Federal Government cannot stop this insecurity without state police. You must have state police; there is no two ways about it. Having state police does not mean you will not have federal police.”

“All over the federal system, even councils have their police so that you employ people who know the environment.”

“You cannot take a stranger to go to Mambilla. It will take him years to understand that place. You can’t take a stranger and go to Donga or Chanchanji. So, you need people who know the environment to be able to take care of the place.”

“If federal offences are committed, the federal police should handle them. If they are state offences, the state police should handle them. One key thing to stop this insecurity in Nigeria is to have state police.”
