Former presidential candidate, and founder of an online news agency Sahara Reporters, Omoleye Sowore on Thursday led protesters to Abuja Police Headquarters demanding an end to police brutality and extortion.
The protesters were carrying placards emblazoned with different inscriptions like #EdnSARSNow, WeDontNeedSARS etc and were raucously chanting.
With many Police officers barricading them from entering the headquarters, the protesters demanded for the presence of IGP Adamu.
They were calling President Muhammdu Buhari’s name, urging him to end SARS now.
Recall that Adamu had informed Nigerian youths that their voices and complaints on the issues of unprofessional conducts by some SARS operatives have been heard very loudly and clearly.
On that note he banned the personnel of the Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad (FSARS) and other Tactical Squads of the Force including the Special Tactical Squad (STS), Intelligence Response Team (IRT), Anti-Cultism Squad and other Tactical Squads operating at the Federal, Zonal and Command levels, from carrying out routine patrols and other conventional low-risk duties – stop and search duties, checkpoints, mounting of roadblocks, traffic checks, etc – with immediate effect.
