A coalition of different social groups has stormed the outskirt of Ibadan to demand the outright reformation of the entire Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), unit across the country.
The groups were seen moving around in Ibadan with different placards labeling the SARS as a ruthless and inhumane unit of the police force.
One of the protesters, Tunde Bureemo, who is the Secretary General of the Youth Enlightenment Empowerment and Self-Sustainability Initiative (YESSI), a non governmental organisation, disclosed to Tribune Online that himself together with his crew and some other civil organizations have gathered to express their dissatisfactions with the SARS unit activities in Ibadan and Nigeria at large.
“Our take is simple. We are calling on the Federal Government to curb the irrational activities of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, as the unprofessional and brutality of the unit on innocent youths across Nigerian is becoming unbearable.
“SARS is expected to protect and not to injure Nigerian youth with positive vibes. We call for total re-orientation of the force,” he said.
It would be recalled that the alleged highhandedness, brutality andextrajudicial execution perpetrated by the Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS), orchestrated the #EndSARS protests renting the atmosphere of
Nigeria.
