#ENDSARS: Buhari directs police boss on next action
After a meeting between President Muhammadu Buhari and IGP Mohammed Adamu, The President, a fresh set of actions that will reform the Federal Special Anti-robbery Squad emerged.
Buhari also appealed for calm in a series of tweets after the meeting.
“I met again with the IGP tonight. Our determination to reform the police should never be in doubt. I am being briefed regularly on the reform efforts ongoing to end police brutality and unethical conduct, and ensure that the Police are fully accountable to the people,” he tweeted.
“The IG already has my firm instructions to conclusively address the concerns of Nigerians regarding these excesses, & ensure erring personnel are brought to justice. I appeal for patience and calm, even as Nigerians freely exercise their right to peacefully make their views known.
“The vast majority of men and women of the Nigeria Police Force are patriotic and committed to protecting the lives and livelihoods of Nigerians, and we will continue to support them to do their job.”
Since Sunday when Nigeria began to boil following a video showing police brutality in Delta, there have been protests in Lagos, Abuja, and Osun—against SARS and the police.
