Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has come out to say that FG is trivializing the demands of #EndSARS protesters.

Wike recently revealed that directing state governors to take charge of Tactical Commands of the Police means FG is not taking things seriously.

According to him, state governors cannot take charge of Tactical Commands because they will not be able to employ or discipline anyone who goes astray.

He added that he supports #EndSARS protests fully and he would not have addressed the protesters if he was against them.

His words, “State Governors cannot take charge of Tactical Commands because they cannot employ or discipline anyone who errs.

“Now the Federal Government wants us to set up another commission of inquiry when the report of the last one we set up was not implemented.

“I acted on intelligence to ensure that #EndSARS protest in Port Harcourt was not hijacked by miscreants. If I did not support it, I would not have addressed the protesters who are demanding a change in the way the Federal Government conducts the affairs of the country.”

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.
