The Kwara State House of Assembly has called on the state government to liaise with traditional rulers and community leaders in the state with a view to resuscitating neighbourhood policing for protection of life and property.
The assembly made the call in its resolution after adopting a motion moved by the House Leader, Honourable Hassan Oyeleke.
Oyeleke noted that the resuscitation of the neighbourhood policing would complement effort of the conventional police.
He further said that the state was still under-policed, adding that many communities in the state were not having the presence of conventional policemen.
He said the presence of the neighbourhood policing would reduce criminal tendencies among members of the community across the state.
The Deputy Speaker, Mathew Okedare, who presided over the plenary, while reading the resolution, urged the state government to liaise with traditional rulers and other community leaders in order to resuscitate the neighbourhood policing.
