The House of Representatives approved a constitutional amendment bill on Thursday aimed at establishing state police in Nigeria. The passage of the bill followed a disruption in the session, which was caused by disagreements over the method of voting, specifically the preference for manual voting. The approval marks a significant step towards decentralizing police operations in the country, allowing states to have their own police forces. This legislative action is part of ongoing discussions regarding security reforms in Nigeria.
