The quest by Nigeria to have state police received a boost on Thursday when the Speakers of the Houses of Assembly across 36 states in the country backed the ongoing constitution review exercise for its creation.
The Speakers, under the aegis of the Conference of Speakers of State Legislatures of Nigeria, took the stand in a communique issued at the end of their meeting in Abuja on Thursday.
The communique was signed by Chairman of the Conference of Speakers of State Legislatures of Nigeria, Mr Adebo Ogundoyin, who is the Speaker of the Oyo State House of Assembly.
