Senate blows hot over unlawful arrest of Nigerians by Benin Republic

Senate blows hot over ‘unlawful’ arrest of Nigerians by Benin Republic The Punch Published 6 July 2021 The Senate has condemned what it described as the “unlawful” encroachment and arrest of Nigerians by the authorities of the Republic of Benin. The upper chamber directed its Committees on Foreign Affairs, Judiciary, Human Rights and Legal Matters, and States and Local Governments to interface with the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Federal Ministry of Justice and National Border Commission to urgently put in place the necessary mechanism that would provide lasting solutions to this issue. The upper chamber’s decision to intervene was reached amid its resolutions, following a point of order raised by Senator Tolu Odebiyi (APC, Ogun West), according to a statement on Tuesday.

Northern elders, Afenifere back Reps quest to create state police

While some are in support of state police, believing that it would go a long way in tackling the security challenges bedevilling the country, others are of the view that it would become a tool in the hands of state governors to silence perceived enemies. If the bill is passed by both chambers of the National Assembly, scales through other constitution review processes and assented to by the president, the current police system will be decentralised. It also means the Nigeria Police Force will be moved from exclusive legislative to concurrent list in the constitution. Agitations for state police had prompted many governors, especially in the southern part of the country to form security outfits either individually or collectively.
