Senator Ali Ndume of Borno South has endorsed President Bola Tinubu’s decision to withdraw police escorts from VIPs, calling it one of the most commendable policies. Speaking on Channels TV’s Politics Today, Ndume criticized the practice of assigning police not just to ministers and senators but also to their wives and children, calling it unnecessary and excessive.
Ndume explained that while he is sometimes accompanied by officers for monitoring purposes due to his legal challenges, police should not serve as personal protectors for VIP families. He urged full implementation of the withdrawal policy and stressed that the resources could be better utilized elsewhere, emphasizing accountability and fairness in the use of security personnel.
