Lagos State governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu has come out to say that the current curfew may be eased on Friday.

He recently revealed that as soon as the streets have been cleared and nerves have been relaxed, he’ll slow down the curfew for Lagosians to return to work.

According to him, even if the protest started peacefully, hoodlums have taken advantage of the situation and the government had to step in to restore peace to the land.

He added that the attacking of protesters and clamping down on police stations and other properties in the state cannot continue under his watch.

The Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) is a Nigerian Police Force unit under the Force Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department headed by the Deputy Inspector General of Police Anthony Ogbizi. Since 2012, SARS has come under controversy for being linked to acts of extortion, torture, framing and blackmail.

The Special Anti-Robbery Squad was founded in 1992 by former police commissioner Simeon Danladi Midenda. The major reason SARS was formed was when Col. Rindam, a Nigerian Army Colonel was killed by police officers at a checkpoint in Lagos.

SARS is one of the 14 units in the Force Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department which was established to detain, investigate and prosecute people involved in crimes like armed robbery, kidnapping and other forms of crimes.

During its formation the Special Anti-Robbery Squad was known to operate covertly. SARS operatives were not allowed to wear police uniform, publicly carry guns or have walkie-talkies. They were given unmarked vehicles with sometimes no license plates or private plate numbers during duty.
