#EndSWAT: How Nigerians Reacts As IG Adamu Changes SARS To “SWAT”––Less than a day after the IG of Police announced the formation of a new police unit to replace the defunt SARS, Nigerians have express disappointment as to his decision.
Adamu Mohammed said the new unit, Special Weapons And Tactics (SWAT) would fill the void of the disbanded SARS, adding that recruitment into the unit has commenced.
Many Nigerians have taken to the micro-blogging site, Twitter to express their disappointment and disapproval of the SWAT unit.
Many chorused in their tweets that the disbanded SARS was just a camouflage while agitating for the #EndSWAT.
Some of comments includes:
Rude boy tweeted: “Why telling us about new name #SWAT instead of telling us what their job should be Man shrugging una never see anything Man walkingMan walking WE MOVE Raised fist.”
Bolarinwa Olajide wrote: ”

I actually dare the IGP to travel beyond Abuja in mufti without security or an official vehicle. His own ‘men’ won’t recognize him.
Never seen governance so out of touch with reality like this. #EndSWAT
