A security analyst, Mr Folorunsho Atta, has
called on the Inspector General of Police, Mr Solomon Arase, to
overhaul the Police Intelligence Unit for better performance.
According to Atta, if the unit was overhauled, intelligence gathering and report will check incessant killings of people in clashes between herdsmen and farmers.
The analyst said that events of the past few years had revealed that the neglect of the unit by successive IGs led to the wanton destruction of lives and property, especially in the North.
Atta said since Arase had proved his worth as expert in intelligence gathering, he should now overhaul and equip that department.
He said that he had found out from police sources that such clashes would have been averted if only advice from the intelligence unit was taken seriously by IGs. Atta said that since Arase knew the problems confronting the unit, now was the right time to give a facelift to it, with the hope of making and ensuring the personnel become effective.
