Police pro frank mba explains why fsars was decentralised

I think there may be some confusion here.

Frank Mba is a Nigerian police officer who has served as the Deputy Commissioner of Police, Force Public Relations Officer, and other roles. However, I couldn't find any information that suggests he is a "Police Pro" or has explained the decentralization of FSARS (Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad).

FSARS is a special unit of the Nigerian Police Force that was established to combat armed robbery and other violent crimes. However, over the years, there have been numerous allegations of human rights abuses and extrajudicial killings committed by FSARS officers.

In response to these allegations, the Nigerian government announced in 2020 that it would be reforming FSARS and decentralizing its operations. The reform aimed to address the concerns about the unit's activities and ensure that it operates within the bounds of the law.

If you're looking for information on why FSARS was decentralized, I can provide some general information. The decentralization of FSARS was intended to:

  1. Reduce the concentration of power: By decentralizing FSARS, the government aimed to reduce the concentration of power in the hands of a few individuals and ensure that the unit operates more transparently and accountably.
  2. Improve accountability: Decentralization allows for greater accountability, as each decentralized unit is responsible for its own actions and decisions.
  3. Enhance community policing: Decentralization enables FSARS to work more closely with local communities, building trust and improving relationships between the police and the public.
  4. Reduce corruption: Decentralization can help reduce corruption by making it more difficult for individuals to abuse their power and engage in corrupt activities.

It's worth noting that while the decentralization of FSARS was intended to address the concerns about the unit's activities, there are still ongoing efforts to reform the Nigerian police force and ensure that it operates in a more transparent and accountable manner.
