Tinubu, Akpabio Playing Politics With State Police — Banwo
Tinubu, Akpabio Playing Politics With State Police — Banwo
Public commentator Dr. Ope Banwo has accused President Bola Tinubu and Senate President Godswill Akpabio of engaging in political theatrics over the long-debated issue of state police, describing recent comments on constitutional amendments as “mere choreography.”
Banwo, questioned the sincerity of the presidency and the National Assembly following reports that the President asked lawmakers to “start thinking” about amending the Constitution to accommodate state policing.
According to him, such language reflects hesitation rather than urgency in the face of what he described as a multi-layered security breakdown across the country.
“Nigeria is fighting several different security wars at the same time,” Banwo argued, citing terrorism in the North-East, banditry in forest regions, kidnapping-for-ransom networks, and violent land conflicts affecting rural communities.
He maintained that security is inherently local and cannot be effectively coordinated solely from Abuja, stressing that intelligence gathering, trust-building, and rapid response mechanisms are stronger when controlled at the state level.
Banwo further argued that if the executive truly desired constitutional reform, the National Assembly would have already begun formal legislative processes, noting that previous executive-backed reforms were passed swiftly.
“If this administration wants something, it happens quickly,” he said, suggesting that delays on state police indicate political reluctance rather than procedural difficulty.
He concluded that until a constitutional amendment bill is formally tabled and debated, recent remarks should be viewed as political positioning rather than genuine reform efforts.

The Act of God’s Mercy: A Shortcut from Judgment — Dr. Chris Okafor
The Act of God’s Mercy:
A Shortcut from Judgment — Dr. Chris Okafor
….. “God blesses whom He is pleased with, regardless of lies or blackmail.”
When God decides to lift a person, He does not require elections, endorsements, or human recommendations to validate His authority. He acts according to His sovereign will and divine pleasure.
This formed the foundation of the message delivered by the Generational Prophet of God and Senior Pastor of Grace Nation Global, Christian Okafor, during the Grace Nation Partnership Sunday Service held at the international headquarters of Grace Nation Worldwide in Ojodu Berger, Lagos, Nigeria.
The Act of Mercy
Preaching on the topic “The Act of Mercy,” Dr. Okafor described God’s mercy as the believer’s shortcut from judgment. According to him, when God extends mercy, He transforms weaknesses into strengths and elevates individuals beyond human expectations.
“What people fail to see in you, God sees,” he declared. “And when He chooses to bless you, no amount of falsehood can reverse it.”
The Apostle of Altars cautioned against judging others based on social media narratives or online accusations. While people may judge by public opinion, God judges according to His covenant and personal dealings with an individual. As a result, someone criticized publicly may still be divinely endorsed and blessed by God.
“When God wants to promote you,” he said, “He does not consult anyone. He responds to what speaks positively about you before Him.”
*How to Access Mercy*
Dr. Okafor outlined key steps to accessing divine mercy:
Total Repentance
Genuine repentance and a sincere relationship with Jesus Christ position a believer for mercy and restoration. Accepting Christ as Lord and Savior, he emphasized, opens the door to total recovery.
*Prayer*
Consistent prayer attracts divine favor. When God’s mercy rests upon a person, lies and blackmail lose their power. Regardless of public criticism, God’s verdict stands firm.
“When God declares, ‘This is My beloved child in whom I am pleased,’ no human submission can overturn it,” he stated.
*Service Highlights*
The Partnership Sunday Service concluded with a special prayer session for Grace Nation partners worldwide, followed by a fatherly blessing from Dr. Okafor.
The ministry also announced its annual flagship family liberation conference, “The 2026 Harvest of Babies,” scheduled to hold later in March 2026.
Further details will be communicated in subsequent bulletins.
