Speaking at the National Security Summit organized by the Senate, he said there was no how the current police structure in the country can effectively police the country.<\/p>\n
The Vice President who spoke for about 30 minutes said the current number of the police in the country should be tripled.<\/p>\n
He stressed the need for the country to step up collaboration with neighbouring countries.<\/p>\n
Osinbajo also cautioned various stakeholders in the country not to allow the present insecurity challenge assume religious dimension.<\/p>\n

“There can be no denying the horrific reality in many parts of our country today. People who should be neighbours are turning on one another and taking up arms.

We must take this country back and restore order,” he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
