Niger market attack: The time for state police is now, Atiku insist

Niger market attack: The time for state police is now, Atiku insist
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterChat With Us Live


The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the last election,Atiku Abubakar, has called for speedy amendment of the constitution which seeks to introduce State police, following bandit attacks in Madaka community, Rafi LGA of Niger state.

In a statement posted on X on Saturday, Atiku condemned the invasion of Madaka market by bandits in which more than 20 residents were killed with over 20 women abducted.

He said “It is saddening that Nigeria has become a killing field. Thursday’s killing of scores of persons, including the village head and abduction of an unspecified number of people by suspected bandits in Madaka, in Rafi local government area of Niger state, is yet another confirmation that contrary to assurances, insecurity continues to be rife in our country,

“We have to prioritise security and speed up the process of a constitutional amendment that will introduce state police so that states and local authorities can deploy mechanisms that best suit their environment in tackling this hydra-headed insecurity in our land.”

On February 15, the federal government set up a committee to explore the creation of state police.

Mohammed Idris, minister of information, said the president and governors have agreed on modalities for the concept.

The minister said a series of meetings would take place to determine the workability of a decentralised police force.
