The Nasarawa State House of Assembly is set to consider a bill seeking the establishment of a state police on September 28.
The proposed legislation is expected to provide a legal framework for the creation and operation of a state police system in Nasarawa State, with the aim of strengthening security and improving local law enforcement.
The bill comes amid growing discussions in Nigeria over the establishment of state police as an additional mechanism for addressing security challenges and enhancing community policing.
If considered and passed by the lawmakers, the proposed law would set out the structure, responsibilities and operational framework for the state police in Nasarawa.
