Concerns that state governors would abuse state police if it were established have been disregarded by Ali Ndume, who argues that democracy and the passage of time will eventually hold politicians accountable for their acts.
During an interview on Trust TV, the senator stated that governors already use their positions as chief security officers to have a large amount of influence over the security of their respective states.
He also mentioned that police commissioners frequently collaborate closely with that position.
During his tenure, he also brought up the fact that governors are afforded constitutional immunity, but they are only allowed to serve a maximum of two terms in office.
The senator used the example of a former governor, who, according to him, is currently suffering the repercussions of actions that were taken in the past, to provide support for his point.
According to him, the guy in question personally oversaw the destruction of people's properties while he was serving as governor, but he is currently dealing with challenging conditions on the job.
It was difficult for him to observe how certain leaders handled people while they were at the height of their influence, he said, adding that he had witnessed some governors exercise immense power in ways that left him extremely emotional over the course of his life. Through the years, he had witnessed this.
As he was saying, "The law of karma or nature will catch up. One Governor is going through that now, when he was a governor, he would go and stand outside there and supervise the demolition of somebody's property."
