BY AUSTIN OYIBODE

Senator Ned Nwoko has reiterated the importance of fair representation in Nigeria’s security architecture, emphasizing that inclusivity remains critical to fostering national unity and public trust.

The Senator made the remarks during a visit to the Police Service Commission (PSC) Headquarters in Abuja earlier on Thursday.

He was received by the Chairman of the Commission, Hashimu Salihu Argungu (DIG Rtd), and the Secretary, Onyemuche Nnamani.

In a statement following the visit, Senator Nwoko highlighted the need for inclusive policing and institutional reforms.

“Fair representation in all sectors, especially in security, remains key to building trust and national cohesion,” he said.

The meeting, according to the Senator, focused on strengthening community trust in law enforcement by ensuring that all regions of the country feel “seen, heard, and protected.”

The Police Service Commission, responsible for overseeing recruitment, promotion, and disciplinary control in the Nigeria Police Force, plays a central role in shaping the inclusivity of the nation’s policing structure.

Senator Nwoko’s advocacy aligns with growing calls from various quarters for reforms aimed at addressing perceived imbalances in the security sector, ensuring equitable opportunities and representation for all Nigerians.
