Man, Osinbaba understands Nigerians like eye service! We no too smart after all!
That's why PDP wants to change name. They know Nigerians won't be smart enough to link them with the atrocities of the PDP if they change the name (something wey dey that obvious o)!

Osinbaba dey inspect ordinary toilet for Lagos airport & Nigerians dey in awe; them say e dey agile! grin

Sometime ago, Osinbaba ordered all oil companies to move their headquarters to the Niger Delta, & Nigerians, in their usual emotional & unanalytical manner, were jubilating without asking questions. I'm sure the oil companies will laugh so hard at the baseless directive wey be just eye service! Why will the oil companies even obey such directives in the first place?

Truth is there's no sort of reform that'll change whatever crap SARS are doing because na still the same guys! If they're not scrapping SARS, then nothing will change!


abiii, I always tell peeps that the problem of Nigeria is Nigerians and not the politicians as people always nag about. we just don't want the truth and do things the right way by asking questions to policy made by the leaders. that's why they always take us for a ride

That's why the IPIGs & daft PDP sycophants should vote Buhari in 2019 so our beloved Osinbaba will take over in 2023 - 2031! You know Buhari might likely be spending more time in London in his second tenure which will make Osinbaba do his usual wonders!
Abi how you see am?

The incompetent and corrupt IGP cannot overhaul SARS. Mr Idris needs to be replaced by a competent Officer who can do the job.

I don't really care much about either parties but I must commend Osinbajo for going back to the basics by fixing the right things.

Buhari epitomizes what's wrong with Nigeria when someone obviously more qualified and intelligent in the person of Osinbajo should've been the president.

In a sane country never mind developed country, IGP Idris would've been sacked as he has lost control of his men either willfully or due to incompetence. Too reactionary instead of proactive which is the last thing you need for police force dealing with dynamic crimes.

The curernt electoral system is not working as the best candidate are not filtering to the top due to lack of funds and tribalism. We need a change.

Thinking smart

The Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, has obeyed the directive of the Acting President Yemi Osinbajo over restructuring of the oft-criticized Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS.

Mr Idris now renames the unit Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad, FSARS

Earlier on Tuesday, Mr Osinbajo directed the police boss 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 strictly restricted to the prevention and detection of armed robbery and kidnapping, and apprehension of offenders linked to the stated offences.

The acting president also directed the IGP to ensure that all operatives in the emerging unit conduct their operations in strict adherence to the rule of law and with due regard to International Human Rights Law and the constitutionally guaranteed rights of suspects. The operatives should also bear proper identification anytime they are on duty.

In compliance to the acting president’s order, Mr Idris ordered the immediate overhauling of the SARS nationwide.

According to a statement made available to OkayNG.com by the police spokesman Jimoh Moshood, the police boss appointed a police commissioner to head the FSARS.
