According to report reaching oyogist.com, Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, has warned that South-West Security Network Agency, also known as Amotekun, must not become another Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) of the Nigeria Police Force.
Soyinka stated this on Saturday, while featuring on Arise TV.
Ondo and Oyo States have launched the security outfit, which was endorsed by six South-West states last year.
However, there have been allegations of recklessness and extrajudicial killings against the security outfit, especially in Oyo State.
Soyinka said, “I have told them anytime you want us to come and assist, we will come even if it is just on the ethical session so that as you are training them to defend us, we are also training their minds so that Amotekun does not become another SARS, very important. We must do everything together.”
