The members of the Senator Bukola Saraki-led Nigerian Senate have on Wednesday, voted to support the bill to change the name of the Nigeria Police Force to become Nigerian Police.
According to a Tweet TORI News culled from the lawmaker's page (@NGRSenate) in the vote on the name change, 87 senators voted for YES while 2 voted for NO with 1 abstaining.
The amendment was made during the debate on report for constitution review which had been earlier adopted adopted by the joint session of the committees of both the Senate and the House of Representatives.
But the alterations by the National Assembly have to be signed into law by the Nigerian president before they become effective.

DIFFERENT NAME. SAME MENTALITY.

Will the name change - CHANGE the DEMAND FOR BRIBE?

Will the name change - stop "ACCIDENTAL" discharge.

Will the name change - stop the INTIMIDATION of the innocent Nigeria PUBLIC?

Will the name change - lead to the APPREHENSION of CORRUPT GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS

Will the name change - STOP ILLEGAL checkpoints?

Will the name change - STOP the police from being INVOLVED in all sorts of VULGARITY?

Will the name change - stop KIDNAPPINGS?

Will the name change - lead to a better HUMAN RIGHTS?

Will a name change - get the police to be POLITE and COURTEOUS?

I DON'T THINK SO.

DO YOU?Huh?Huh?Huh?

Is that suppose to be an achievement or what. Changing the the QUALITY is more important than the BRAND.

THAT SHOULD BE THEIR WORK AND THE ACHIEVEMENT THAT SHOULD BE CELEBRATED NOT THIS NONSENSE.
