State assemblies should facilitate state police creation, not

State assemblies are responsible for passing the legislation that establishes and funds state police forces, defining their powers, jurisdiction, and oversight mechanisms. Their role is to create the legal framework and allocate resources, while day‑to‑day operational decisions, training standards, and internal policies are left to the police department and its professional leadership. This separation ensures democratic accountability for the existence of the force without politicizing its routine activities. Views Nigeria
