Enugu Apc,Police

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Enugu State, Prince Matthew Agu has opposed the decentralization of the Nigeria police force. The clamour, which has been gaining prominence, will ultimately lead to establishment of state police in Nigeria.

However, Prince Agu declared that state police would be a recipe for disaster and bloody communal conflicts in the country. Speaking to journalists in Enugu on Friday, Agu , a former deputy governorship candidate of Action Congress, in the state, said that Nigeria was far premature for a decentralized policing system, especially with weak democratic institutions still the order of the day.

' Agu insisted that should a state police be established in the current state of affairs in Nigeria, 'the country must surely witness a conflagration of civil unrest that will be higher than a civil war'. He noted that the national governance ranging from national, state and local government have not shown fidelity in the management of existing state institutions such as state electoral bodies, state legislature and the state judiciary among others.
