JUST IN: IGP to withdraw orderlies of Senators, Reps

Ali Ndume, the Senate Chief Whip, has urged the Inspector General of Police to remove orderlies from National Assembly lawmakers and other politicians around the nation.

Ndume made this statement in a Wednesday interview that ZINGTIE watched on Politics Today on Channels Television.

“I support that they should take away all their police (officers).

“One Senator will be going around with 10 policemen, seven members of the House of Reps, everybody. That is for those who are mobile. Some even give security to their wives; others give security to their children. I am against that,” he said.

The Senator representing Borno South Senatorial District stated that because Nigeria only has roughly 300,000 police officers, orderlies for Very Important Personalities should be removed to protect the populace.

“Let’s have like 2 million police, 500,000 soldiers,” he said.

He urged President Bola Tinubu to grant security agencies unlimited funding and weapons to fight the threat of banditry, kidnapping, and insurgency.

He said the President must give the police the authority to recruit two million men and the military half a million.

However, he claimed that if state police were included in the constitutional amendment process, he would not vote for them because governors would abuse them.
