Elder statesman and legal icon, Aare Afe Babalola has declared that Nigerians must fear and respect the Police the way they regard the military, in order to guarantee order and security in the country.
Alternatively, he said Nigeria’s laws should be amended so that the military would be saddled with the enforcement of law and order in the country.
Babalola spoke on Wednesday in Ado-Ekiti, at the 4th edition of the Aare Afe Babalola Distinguished Personality Lecture Series, entitled, ‘Insecurity, leadership and peace building in Nigeria: Dynamics and challenges’.
The event took place at the Afe Babalola University, Ado-Ekiti (ABUAD).
“For me, the military today, is the most disciplined institution in this country. The problem we have today in Nigeria is nothing other than lack of discipline. And this is right from leadership, to the followership.
“How can there be security, leadership and peace when there is no order?,” he queried
