The Inspector General of Police and Minister of Police Affairs have been urged to take the required actions to enhance the nation’s security situation by the Joint Senate and House of Representatives Committee on Police Affairs.
This was stated by the committee, which is co-chaired by Abubakar Yalleman and Abdulhamid Madori, when the minister and the Inspector General testified before the committee’s joint session in Abuja to defend the 2024 budget.
The committee stated that every government’s top priority should always be the protection of people and property, which is why the Nigerian police must perform to the highest standards.
Yalleman stated that the NASS would take the appropriate action to guarantee that the tasks required to improve the Nigeria Police’s performance were completed.
In addition to making sure that our police force and all auxiliary institutions can operate as effectively and efficiently as possible, we will honor the budget,” he declared.
Ibrahim Gaidam, the Minister of Police Affairs, stated that the ministry was collaborating with law enforcement and other organizations to guarantee that they fulfill their responsibilities of maintaining internal security.
The minister mentioned that money was one of the main issues the police were having.
In a similar spirit, Nigeria Police, led by Inspector General of Police Kayode Egbetokun, declared that they were committed to permanently altering the story.
The ideal police force, he continued, would be stationed to combat crime and criminals in all of the nation’s diverse communities.
He expressed hope that the country’s security will increase with the backing of the National Assembly and the people as a whole.
