A former Chief of Defence Staff, Lt. Gen. Alani Akinrinade , has advised the Federal Government to allow regional security outfits to transform into state police.

He, however, recommended that institutional and constitutional mechanism be put in place to check arbitrary use of the state policing structures.

In a statement by Oyintiloye on Sunday titled: ‘Security should be community-driven – Gen. Akinrinade’, made available to The PUNCH in Osogbo, the ex-CDS commended efforts of regional security outfits in tackling security challenges facing the country, adding that efforts to secure the nation should be community-driven rather than being based on a centralised structure.
