Insecurity: Afenifere demands Executive Order on state police

The pan- Yoruba socio-political organization, Afenifere on Saturday decried the escalating insecurity in the country and renewed its call for state police as solution to the problem.

In a statement issued by its spokesman, Jare Ajayi, the Afenifere asked President Bola Tinubu to invoke an Executive Order to create state and local government police.

The call, according to the group, followed increased reports of banditry and kidnapping in Ogun, Edo, Ekiti, Oyo, Kogi, Zamfara, and Niger States.
