President Bola Tinubu has again expressed his administration’s resolve to establish state police to tackle the ravaging security crisis in the country.

The President restated his backing for state police on Tuesday when he held a closed-door meeting with a delegation from Plateau State, led by Governor Caleb Mutfwang.

DAILY POST learnt that the meeting was a follow-up to the President’s recent visit to the state in the aftermath of the Palm Sunday attack in Angwan Rukuba, Jos.

Addressing the stakeholders, Tinubu urged them to implement a white paper “that you have, go through it, and agree to implement those white papers”, adding, “any naughty issues, bring it back”.

According to him, creating state police would end parts of the security problems in the country, stressing that for the creation of widows, widowers and orphans to stop, there must be peace.

He said, “Through the legislators that are here, we are going to work together, to establish state police. I believe that when we have state police, enforcement of law and order will take care of some of these problems.

“For us to stop creating widows, widowers, orphans, there must be peace. It is very tough to develop if you don’t have peace.”
