Nigeria's constitutional amendment to create state police forces has cleared the required threshold with approval from 28 state legislatures, moving the plan closer to becoming law. This marks a major reform by decentralising policing from the federal government to state-level control.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Local security-focused founders in Nigeria must now rethink partnerships and service offerings as policing shifts to state control. This change unlocks new opportunities but also regulatory complexity in delivering security tech or services at state level.
