Creation of State Police will Legitimize Oppression by Governors-NASU Chairman

 The large number of the operatives of the South West security network that accompanied a serving state Governor to a non-state function in Osogbo Osun state has exposed the real motive behind the agitation for state police by its proponents.

This revelation was made by the branch chairman of the Non-Academic Staff Union and Associated Institutions(NASU) University College Hospital(UCH) Ibadan, Nigeria.

''The creation of a state police can only reduce violent crime, but it is not a permanent solution. The virus that is presently within the Nigeria Police Force-extortion, bribery and extra-judicial killings, will be transferred to the state police also. Can you imagine, a state governor was accompanied by the state's regional security network to Osogbo for a self-interest event.  The creation of a state police would only legitimize bullying by those who pay the operatives. This is a sign of what to expect when the state police comes into being. These set of law enforcement operatives are more corrupt.
