The Lagos State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has come out to blast Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s 24-hour curfew amid the #EndSARS protests.

PDP recently revealed that the decision from the Lagos State government was very confrontational and ill-advised.

According to the party’s Publicity Secretary, Mr. Taofik Gani, Sanwo-Olu’s decision to force everyone to stay at home can actually aggravate the agitations by the protesters.

He added that Sanwo-Olu must take responsibility for any degeneration into murder and oppressive arrest of protesters in the nearest future.

His words, “The PDP opines that the decision is confrontational, ill-advised and capable of inflaming the already compressed ‘beast’ in the peaceful demonstrators against Police brutality and other government-induced vices in the state.

“The governor must consequently take responsibility for any degeneration into maiming, killing and oppressive arrest.

“The governor has again showed that he acts copy and paste in governance.”

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.
