‎
‎The National Economic Council, NEC, has approved President Bola
Tinubu’s proposal to overhaul all training institutions of security
agencies in Nigeria.
‎
‎The approval followed concerns raised by President Tinubu on the
need to renovate, remodel, and re-equip all training institutions of the
Nigeria Police and other sister security agencies in the country.
‎
‎Briefing State House correspondents shortly after the 153rd meeting
of NEC at the Council Chamber of the State House, Abuja, Governor
Uba Sani of Kaduna State said the council also resolved that state
governors should collaborate with the Federal Government in the
overhaul project.
‎
‎
He said the council has also set up a committee to kick-start an on-
the-spot assessment of the training institutions.
‎
‎The committee is chaired by Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu State,
who recently defected to the All Progressives Congress APC from the
People’s Democratic Party PDP.
‎
‎Other members of the committee include Governor Sani, Governor
Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State, and Governor Sule Abdullahi of
Nasarawa State, among others.
‎
‎Meanwhile, a Former Inspector General of Police, Usman Baba, is to
serve as secretary of the committee.
