STATE POLICE - POLICE STATE ?
✊🏽 STATE POLICE: LET’S THINK AM WELL BEFORE WE ACT
We understand why many Nigerians are supporting State Police.
Truth be told — insecurity is real. People are tired. People are angry. People just want to be safe.
And honestly, nobody can blame them.
But let’s calm down for a moment and ask ourselves one simple question:
👉 Are we solving the problem… or creating another one?
🤔 LET’S REASON THIS TOGETHER
Today, many people already complain that the police is sometimes used to:
Intimidate people
Harass citizens
Control protests
Now imagine this:
👉 What happens when the same political class controls police directly at state level?
During elections…
During protests…
During disagreements…
Who will protect the ordinary person?
⚠️ THIS IS NOT ABOUT TRIBE OR POLITICS
Let’s be honest.
Power does not know tribe.
Power does not know religion.
👉 Today it may favour you…
👉 Tomorrow it may be used against you
That is the nature of unchecked power.
🧠 WE ARE NOT AGAINST SECURITY — LET’S BE CLEAR
We all want security.
We all want our communities to be safe.
But what we are saying is simple:
✔ Let there be reform
✔ Let policing be closer to the people
❗ But let there be strong safeguards first
🚨 SECURITY IS NOT EXPERIMENT
Some people say:
👉 “Let’s try State Police and see how it goes”
But the truth is:
When security fails, it is the people that suffer — not the politicians.
This is not something we should gamble with.
🔄 LET’S REFRAME THIS MATTER
This is not about:
❌ State Police vs No State Police
This is about:
👉 Protecting the people from abuse of power
📣 WHAT SHOULD WE DO NOW?
Instead of rushing, let us:
👉 Ask questions
👉 Demand clear safeguards
👉 Insist on accountability
👉 Speak up in our communities
👉 Engage our unions, youth groups, and civil society
🤝 CALL FOR SOLIDARITY
This is not a fight for one group.
This is not about politics.
👉 This is about the voiceless and the defenceless
We call on:
Workers
Students and youths
Lawyers
Journalists
Civil society groups
Let us come together — not as followers, but as equal partners — to shape a system that truly protects the people.
✊🏽 IN THE SPIRIT OF STRUGGLE
We must not forget the tradition of our leader and mentor,
Gani Fawehinmi
Who stood firmly for justice, for the people, and against oppression — no matter where it came from.
That is the path we must follow.
🔥 OUR MESSAGE IS CLEAR
Don’t give more power without control.
Security must protect the people — not oppress them.
