Bill Seeking Extension Of IGP’s Tenure Scales Second Reading In Senate

A bill to amend the Police Act 2004 which prescribes a five-year tenure for the Inspector General of Police has passed through the second reading in the Senate.

According to Senator Jika, the amendment is to allow more time for the police boss to effect meaningful changes in the police and improve efficiency in the force. In his contribution, Senator James Manager highlighted the importance of the bill, saying it has captured everything about community policing.“Whatever the military can do, the police force can certainly do. What is lacking is the necessary funding and deployment of equipment,” the lawmaker said.

This National Assembly is completely out of touch with the Nigerian masses. At a time when Nigerians are calling for the sack of service chiefs, nassnigeria is assiduously working on a bill to extend the tenure of IGP. Really unfortunate!

Irresponsible lawmaking from irresponsible lawmakers is to be expected. One can only give what one has.

Yup that's exactly how to do it ! Reward incompetence with a longer tenure ! Next time y'all would focus on who you elect to the house of assembly and less concentration on the presidency

In 2004 eedris abdulkareem released a song tittled Nigeria jaga jaga he was almost crucified by OBJ. The happenings in Nigieria is a clear example of the interpretation of that song. Eedris may GOD continue to bless u for speaking the truth.

5 years tenure. Nigeria i hail.

This same nassnigeria that kicked against insecurity is confirming him for another term? Chaai!

Please who knows why there is flag, flower and candles on that seat? Thanks

Why?
