Acting President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo orders the overhauling of the management and activities of SARS

Following the persistent complaints and reports on the activities of the Special Anti-Robbery squad (SARS) that border on allegations of human right violations.

The Acting President said" I have directed the Inspector General of Police to, with immediate effect, overhaul the management and activities of SARS.

"The inspector General of Police will ensure that any unit that emerges from the process will be intelligence-driven and restricted to prevention and detention of armed robbery and kidnapping, and apprehension of offenders linked to the stated offences and nothing more.

"I have equally directed the IGP to ensure that all operatives in the emerging unit conduct their operations in strict adherence to the rule of law and with due regard to the International Human Right Law and constitutionally guaranteed  rights of suspects.

"The Operatives should also bear proper identification anytime they are on duty.

"Similarly, I have directed the NHRC to set up a special panel that will conduct an investigation of the alleged unlawful activities of SARS in order to afford members of the general public the opportunity to present their grievances with a view to ensuring redress."

Together, Nigeria will prevail!!!!
