actress, Clarion Chukwurah, has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to adopt immediate interim security measures to tackle rising insecurity while the proposed state police structure is being established.<br>&nbsp;<br>In an open letter shared on her Instagram page on Wednesday, Chukwurah commended the President for facilitating the creation of state police, describing the initiative as a step in the right direction.<br>&nbsp;<br>The actress, however, noted that the process of establishing and fully deploying state police across the country, particularly in rural communities, could take between one and two years, while insecurity demands immediate intervention.<br>&nbsp;<br>According to the actress, insecurity and poverty remain major obstacles to national development, adding that the government\u2019s efforts were being undermined by political pressures, corruption and mass unemployment.<br>&nbsp;<br>She argued that many Nigerians living in poverty do not understand the challenges confronting the administration and often view the government as the enemy.<br>&nbsp;<br>Chukwurah urged the President to channel part of the National Security Emergency Intervention Fund towards strengthening community self-defence through armed vigilante groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Veteran Nollywood
