STATEHOUSE PRESS RELEASE 

STATE POLICE CONSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK NEAR COMPLETION- PRESIDENCY 

Significant progress has been made towards establishing state police, with a constitutional amendment expected soon, following months of consultations among the Executive, the National Assembly and security authorities. 

The Chief of Staff to the President, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, disclosed this on Thursday while briefing State House Correspondents after a consultative meeting on state police convened by the Presidency, held at the State House, Abuja. 

Gbajabiamila said deliberations on the proposed state police framework began several months ago following a directive by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, noting that the process has gained considerable traction. 

He explained that establishing state police requires careful consideration of constitutional and legal issues and cannot be implemented hastily. 

"We started deliberations in the last three or four months on how to go about the establishment of state police as directed by Mr President. 

"Establishing state police is not something that you do with the snap of the fingers. There is a lot involved in terms of constitution and legalities, and thank God we have now gained a lot of traction.  

“Hopefully, the amendment will come shortly, and the details of the amendment will come after that," Gbajabiamila added. 

According to him, discussions have now advanced to the point of considering the necessary constitutional amendments, with the enabling legislation to follow afterwards. 

"Right now, what we are looking at is the constitutional amendment itself, and then the enabling law would follow thereafter. That is what we have been deliberating on in the last couple of hours," he added. 

The Chief of Staff highlighted broad national support for the initiative, emphasising that the debate is no longer about whether state police should be establishedbut about creating the appropriate legal and institutional framework for its operation. 

He said President Tinubu, who has consistently advocated for state police as part of efforts to strengthen Nigeria's security architecture, would receive a comprehensive report on the meeting's outcome. 

The meeting is part of a series of consultations convened by the Federal Government to develop a workable framework for the establishment of state police, an initiative aimed at strengthening internal security, improving local intelligence gathering and enhancing the capacity of sub-national governments to address emerging security challenges across the country. 

President Tinubu has maintained in the last few months that state police is a necessary response to Nigeria's evolving security challenges, advocating that a decentralised policing structure would strengthen grassroots security, enhance intelligence gathering and improve the protection of lives and property across the country. 

The meeting was attended by the Deputy President of the Senate, Jibrin Barau, the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Benjamin Kalu, the Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Prince Lateef Fagbemi and the Inspector-General of Police, Tunji Disu, among other senior government officials.

There is a reason why in the Soviet Union, Old Japan and China, you will be sent to the gulag or executed if you followed a foreign religion. Hell, you will still have a had time being a Muslim in China today. People will say it is persecution but religious fundamentalist are a threat to the survival of any nation.

To my Yoruba people the greatest gift you can give your children is a strong connection to their roots. Your language is your identity,teach them Yoruba oo ejor 🙏

[Dr. Yoruba . @wlcback14]

Meet Nasiru @iamnasboi

He is a product of inter-tribal marriage. He was born outside of Yorubaland, grew up outside Yorubaland, and concluded long ago that he is not Yoruba (you can see this play out in most of his boring skits).

He condemns tribalism every day, while also intentionally setting up the Yoruba ethnicity for drags.

Nasiru is evidence that intermarriage doesn’t and can never work.

Why can’t Olamide be APC?

Stop allowing these people turn every institution Yorùbá people built into something radioactive.

Can’t attend RCCG. Can’t be APC. Can’t be a Yorùbá billionaire riding a bike in Eko Atlantic. Can’t celebrate Ojúde Ọba in peace.

At what point do you realize the issue is not the individual? The issue is that they do not want you existing unapologetically in your own spaces.
Enough.

[Madam Suzie🌴🤍 @madam_suzie_]

First of all, islam isn't "primordial" it's just 1,400 years old, Also the Yorùbá civilization is way older than Islam our recorded history is 10,068 years...our ancestors were already living and enjoying their empires way before mohammad and even jesus was born....if you're in support of the jihad happening rn just come out and say so...no need for all these long talks... religious identity comes after ethnic and racial identity all over the sane parts of the world because it's temporary and can be changed but your DNA can't be changed and can still be read long after you're dead... DNA doesn't record "religion".

How many gaa fulani in the forest has been attacked by the Fulani bandits or JNIM ? How many Fulani leaders has openly condemned the attrocities of their people ? But hey, profiling all Fulani is bad

[Olufemi Adebimpe @femiadebimpe]

As soon as the Yorubas are acting in ways that protect their interests, it is immediately called tribalism.

Everybody can have village meetings & organize themselves in ways that is in the interests of their group but not the Yorubas- and not even in their own land.

They must be the ones who have to adapt themselves to everyone. They must be the gracious hosts, who shouldn't mind reducing themselves for others to look bigger.

Their culture must be shared or co-owned & they must have a thick skin against cultural prejudices, framed as political differences. They must accept envy & accept the bully was always a victim.

All of that nonsense is abuse. It must stop.

[I @captMansa]

Come and stop it

[Sarki. @Waspapping_]

The profiling of every Fulani person in the South as a bandit must stop immediately.

The government cannot afford to sit back and watch this dangerous trend escalate into tribal violence.

People should not be judged and killed based on their ethnicity.

[I @captMansa]

Yes, and it's ok to question your choice if it's on a mission to wipe my race out or make us slaves in our land because of fucking foreign religion

[Tunde-Flanker @Natifdoc]

@captMansa That’s okay too.
You see that nobody is pulling your balls because of your opinion.
Allow others to decide their position too.

[I @captMansa]

The Igbos that marched on Ore to take over Yorubaland? Both Fulani and Ibos are eternal enemies of Yoruba

Hear the oloriburuku champion of Ethnic division

[Peter Obi @PeterObi]

Dear Young Nigerians,

One lesson from the 2023 elections, particularly in Lagos, should never be forgotten.

In the period following the presidential election and leading up to the governorship election, we witnessed a troubling shift in public discourse. Conversations that should have focused on competence, governance, development, and the future of our nation were gradually diverted towards tribal sentiments, ethnic divisions, and unnecessary suspicion among citizens.

Many sincere and well-meaning Nigerians participated in these conversations without realising that they were being drawn into narratives carefully designed by others.

Throughout history, whenever politicians find it difficult to compete on ideas, performance, character, or vision, some resort to exploiting the fault lines of ethnicity, religion, and identity. Their calculation is simple: a divided people are easier to manipulate than a united people.

Today, I see similar efforts emerging again, sometimes in more subtle and sophisticated ways. Narratives are planted, amplified, and circulated, often by individuals who genuinely believe they are defending a worthy cause, without recognizing the broader agenda behind such campaigns.

Let me state clearly that Pastor Enoch Adeboye remains one of the foremost fathers of faith in our nation. For decades, he has consistently preached the virtues of peace, prayer, love, reconciliation, and national unity. Even when faced with provocation, his response has always reflected humility, restraint, wisdom, and grace.

At 84 years of age, it would be unfair for young and able-bodied Nigerians to transfer to him responsibilities that properly belong to them. The task of building a better Nigeria rests primarily on the shoulders of the younger generation. It is their duty to lead the conversations, champion the reforms, and drive the positive change our nation urgently requires.

We must be careful not to become instruments in the hands of those who secretly nurture division while publicly preaching unity. In most cases, their target is not the individual being attacked; instead, it is the person who is attacking. Their real objective is to weaken the bonds that hold us together as one people and one nation.

I therefore urge all young Nigerians: do not allow anyone to recruit you into hatred. Do not allow anyone to weaponise your ethnicity, your faith, or your admiration for respected leaders.

Question every narrative. Verify every claim. Follow the facts. Resist manipulation.

The Nigeria of our dreams can only be built by citizens who refuse to be divided, who choose unity over hatred, and who place our collective future above narrow interests.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
