What if your state had its own police force, one that understands your community, responds faster to insecurity, and answers to local authorities? That possibility could soon become Nigeria's reality.

In this episode of The Governance Discourse, host Veronica Pana Igube breaks down the constitutional amendment that could reshape Nigeria's security architecture through state policing. We examine why Nigeria's centralised police system has struggled to keep up, the case for and against state police, and what's actually in the bill.

Topics covered: Nigeria's current policing structure, rising insecurity across the country, the arguments for and against state police, and a breakdown of the proposed constitutional amendment.
