The IGP says the report provides professional insights and strategic recommendations, shaped by extensive consultations and assessments of operational, legal, and administrative implications as he expresses  hope it will contribute to informed decisions on national security.


The Deputy  President of the Senate in response says the Senate Committee will study the proposed framework as part of the ongoing review of the 1999 Constitution.


The creation of State Police he adds  aligns with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's commitment to enhance security in the country.
