Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, disclosed this to State House correspondents on Thursday.
The minister spoke after a meeting between President Bola Tinubu and state governors at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
According to Idris, the possibility of creating a state police structure will, however, be further discussed.
He further said that a lot of work needed to be done, and the President and State governors have agreed on working out the modalities on the idea.
