“We acknowledge the function of a special unit within the Nigerian Police Force, but it has become common knowledge that the name “SARS” and “FSARS” have been affiliated with prejudice and terror.”
“We strongly believe that there are other investigative and intelligence driven methods that can be employed by officers of the police force in tracking crime instead of the archaic method of prejudice and unwarranted aggression.”
