Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, SAN, has warned the President Bola Tinubu-led Nigerian government not to allow state governments that are currently struggling to pay N30,000 minimum wage to their workers to create state police. The renowned human rights lawyer said this on Wednesday while speaking at the maiden edition of the Yinka Odumakin Inter-faculty Debate and Public Lecture held by the Student Union of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State.
The union noted that the two-day event will also feature an interfaculty debate not just to honour the deceased but as a way of entrenching the university’s culture of intellectual engagement.
