State Police: It will protect persecuted Nigerian Christians – US Congressman, Moore
A United States Congressman, Riley Moore, has commended the Nigerian Senate for passing the contentious State Police Bill.
In a post on his verified X handle on Wednesday, Moore said the reform would help states better protect citizens, especially persecuted Christians.
He made this remark shortly after the Senate’s approval of the bill which seeks to decentralise policing by allowing states to establish their own police services alongside the Nigeria Police Force.
Recall that the US lawmaker has previously spoken on attacks against Christians in Nigeria.
According to US lawmaker, the passage of the bill will go a long way to address insecurity in the country, stressing that he had called for the same thing publicly and privately since he first started investigating the genocide against Christians in Nigeria.
“I can’t stress how critical this law that will empower states to protect their own citizens and reduce dependence on decision makers in Abuja is to the effort to defend persecuted Christians and address insecurity,” he wrote.
