Members of the Delta State House of Assembly have approved a proposed constitutional amendment to create a state police service in Nigeria. The vote in the Delta legislature was unanimous. All 23 assembly members backed the proposal, leaving no recorded opposition in that chamber. The proposal seeks to give the state its own police force rather than have local security handled only by the national police. Assembly approval does not itself settle how the force would be organized or when it could begin operating. No implementation date is given, and the report does not explain how command and oversight would be divided.
