Is it proper the way Nigeria police is been used as a bodyguard?

Is not news regards to the situation of security in the country which makes the security personnel not to work for the common man but rather been used as a security guard for the elite, it has also made the common man to be oppressed because this personnel are now the tools used against the common man to suppress them and prove their lordship over the poor.

A lot of Nigerian are clamouring that Security personnel henceforth not to be used as personal personnel that law should be created to back up this, in order to have a society that is free, where poor massive can express their views.
