Semafor · United States · Nigeria's Senate passes state-police amendment, ending a 47-year federal monopoly
Places the vote against banditry, jihadist insurgency and mass kidnappings that the single federal police has failed to contain, and stresses the long ratification road still ahead through the state assemblies.
“Supporters say state forces could strengthen security in areas hit by kidnappings and militant violence; two-thirds of state assemblies must still approve.”
