IGP should not allowed occult, yahoo boy, arm robber , children raper, women raper and 419 who calling either for the overhauling of SARS or scrapping to have upper hand, Nigerians themselves need to be overhauled, everywhere you go now is either cultism, 419 ,70 years old man raped 8years old girl, killing everywhere , the only police outfit those mention above fear is SARS including WIKE of river state. IGP and Osibanjo should allow SARS to work, those clamoring for the scrapping of SARS have something hidden and therefore they should not allow them to succeed.

The purpose of the overhaul is to fix SARS endemic system of corruption. It's like they don't carry out their job responsibilities any longer, rather torture the innocents since their pockets are not full unlike the bandits you mentioned.

Please, it's long overdue. I support this.

In less than 3daƴs, see policy actualisation! Nigeria's proɓlem is leaɗership.

Osibande for President

The Human Rights Desk is a right step. But I think the whole Police Force needs this overhaul. Ordinary Policemen display more disregard for the citizen's basic civil and human rights in Nigeria.

How I wish, Baba will just stay put and allow Osinbajo to continue. The man get brain. Why cant IGP dear him like he dear President in case of Benue and nothing happen.

I remember that it was when NEPA changed to PHCN that the whole electricity sturvs worsened. Fingers crossed...

This Is Nigeria

God bless president Osinbajo for this...what babu can't do
