Former Nigerian Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has condemned the inhumane activities of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) in Nigeria.
The SARS unit so far has been allegedly harassing and killing Nigerians over the years. Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar reacted angrily via his Official Twitter handle Yesterday.
He Wrote;
“The Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) unit of the @PoliceNG was set up to confront violent crimes such as armed robbery, kidnapping and other related crimes. However, the unit has today morphed into an oppressor of the Nigerian masses who strive every day for a better life.
“Reports of intimidation, harassment and outright extortion by officers of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) have continued unabated.”I strongly condemn their cruel actions against our people, and I urge the government to rise to the occasion and nip this monstrosity in the bud with the seriousness it deserves.
