The #EndSARS group has eventually won the fight, as a new directive from Nigeria's Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo revealed that the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) has been shut down and a reformation of Nigeria's Police Force is on the way.

For over nine months, Nigeria's social media has seen the #EndSARS movement which brings to light the several misconducts of Nigerian Police officers ranging from harassment, extortion, assault to extra-judicial killings.

The statement released by the Acting President Yemi Osinbajo's spokesperson, Laolu Akande, revealed that the IGP has been ordered to shut down the unit "with immediate effect". It reads in part;

"Following persistent complaints and reports on the activities of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) that border on allegations of human rights violations, His Excellency, Professor Yemi Osinbajo SAN, Acting-President, Federal Republic of Nigeria, has directed the Inspector General of Police to, with immediate effect, overhaul the management and activities of SARS and ensure that any unit that will emerge from the process, will be intelligence-driven and restricted to the prevention and detection of armed robbery and kidnapping, and apprehension of offenders linked to the stated offences, and nothing more."

The #EndSARS campaign Chief, Segun Awosanya who also confirmed the report, wrote;

We WON Guys! #EndSARS #ReformPoliceNG @julietkego @Tutsy22 @DrJoeAbah Time to build a new. The #NewNigeria is real. Congrats to @PoliceNG as we begin to reform. Out with the Old and welcome the New.  #OsinbajoDelivers

Thanks @yemusan1 @koredebello @RuggedyBaba @fodewunmi @ChubaEzeks @Iykepfs @DrArowoloAyoola @ikehiemma and all the great people out there that have been contributing daily in the past one year. Now to focus on monitoring sustainably #ReformPoliceNG

The Devil is in the details. The implementation of the order is key. We will remain vigilant as we press on to ensure effective monitoring. Humans are weakest at the point of success but we must understand that success by itself is a journey & never a destination.

Prof. Yemi Osibanjo, SAN, history will remember you for this noble act of yielding to the yearnings of Nigerians.
Within the past few days you held sway, you have made indelible marks in the sand of history, making a whole lot of us wish you will hold sway for a long time.
We know some of these decisions are not easy to make, we pray God gives you the strength to continue same as we collectively build a Nigeria we wish, want and will live in.
God bless you sir.
