N1billion funds for military: What about Nigeria Police – Shehu Sani asks
Senator
Shehu Sani, who represents Kaduna Central district in the National Assembly has
raised concern over the state of Nigeria Police.
Sani, on
Friday called on the federal government to stop sidelining the Nigeria police
and accord same attention it gives the Nigerian Military.
He stated
this in reaction to the approval of N1bn approved for military equipment.
Recall that
Buhari had approved the fund during a meeting with the Minister of Defence,
Brigadier General Mansur Dan-Ali (rtd), and the service chiefs at the
Presidential Villa in Abuja.
The Kaduna
lawmaker in his tweets expressed concern on the force being left behind.
Speaking on
the repercussion of sidelining police, Sani wrote: “If we use a Billion dollar
to upgrade our military arsenals to the 21st century while leaving behind our
police in the 20th century and other security agencies in the 19th century,we
will be dancing with the Python & sleeping with the Cobra,Viper,Mamba &
Anaconda.”
