Senate is likely to pass the State Police bill this week Wednesday as President Bola Tinubu transmitted to the Senate a Constitution Alteration Bill seeking the establishment of state police in Nigeria.
In a communication dated 15th June 2026 and read by the President of the Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio, Tinubu said the legislation would provide a framework for a dual policing structure in Nigeria, with additional safeguards to better address security challenges.
The proposed bill is a critical component of efforts to reorganize the structure of policing to better protect citizens, as states, communities, municipalities, and local government areas would take part in policing responsibilities.
Consideration of the bill was, however, adjourned to Wednesday as the Senate mourns a House of Representatives member from Gombe, Yahaya Tongo, who died during the recess.
