What IG Adamu Told Davido About The New Police Unit To Replace SARS – #StopPoliceBrutalityinNigeria—-The new police structure which will be replacing the disbanded Special Anti -Robbery Squad (SARS) will begin their training next week, the Inspector General of Police said yesterday.
Speaking to popular music artiste, Davido who visited him in the office on Monday October 12th over the ongoing #ENDSARS protests, the IG said there is a need to get a new structure to carry out the duties of the defunct police unit.
Officers of the disbanded SARS would be retrained and given other responsibilities in the Force and not be reabsorbed into the new unit. The new unit will be intelligence -driven, properly trained and only act on special occasions that require their attention, he said.
He said:
“We just disbanded yesterday so protesters should calm down and give us time to fix the problem. The general public will be part of the process of getting a new outfit.
“I’m talking to you so I will keep talking to many others and get civil societies involved and get their input towards the new unit.”
