Zamfara State House of Assembly has considered and adopted a resolution supporting the proposed constitutional amendment for the establishment of state police in Nigeria.
The Speaker of the House, Isma’ila Moriki who presided over the Assembly’s sitting on Monday disclosed this while addressing journalists at a press conference in his office on Monday evening.
Moriki said the resolution followed the transmission of the proposed constitutional alterations by the National Assembly to state legislatures for consideration.
“The establishment of state police, if approved, would provide additional support in addressing the security challenges confronting Zamfara and other parts of the country.
“This will, Insha Allah, complement the efforts of Mr President and Governor Dauda Lawal in addressing the insecurity-related issues in the state and our dear country, Nigeria,” Moriki said.
The resolution comes amid persistent security challenges in parts of Zamfara, where communities have faced attacks and abductions by armed groups.
