The Inspector-General of Police, Mr .Ibrahim Idris, has ordered members of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad to wear police uniforms with full identification, pending the launch of new FSARS uniform.

The force Spokesman, Acting Deputy Commissioner of Police, Jimoh Moshood, who indicated this in a statement in Abuja on Friday, said Idris gave the order at a meeting with critical stakeholders, News Agency of Nigeria reported.

Moshood said that Idris was represented by the Deputy Inspector-General of police in Charge of Operations, Mr. Habila Joshak.

He said that the meeting was convened to brief the stakeholders on the progress made so far in the overhaul of the SARS, now known as Federal SARS.

The Police boss said that the overhaul of SARS was beyond rhetoric as strategic reforms were being implemented.

He said that the FSARS operatives had been ordered to desist from attending to civil or commercial matters henceforth and focus strictly on armed robbery and kidnapping cases only.

According to Moshood, the Commissioner of Police in charge of FSARS, Mr. Habiru Gwandu, informed the meeting that a human rights desk had been created in the 36 states of the federation and FCT.

He said that the desks would address cases of infractions against members of the public by FSARS personnel across the nation.

Gwandu added that the Police had engaged the services of psychologists and counsellors in the ongoing screening of FSARS operatives.

On his part, the DCP in charge of the I-G’s X-Squad, Amaechi Elumelu, said in the statement that the screening and mobilisation of FSARS oeratives would not be business as usual again.

He said that FSARS operatives would undergo thorough rigorous orientation including human rights training among other screening processes.

Elumelu said that the IG would soon unveil the Custody Records Management System.

He explained that this system would contain the records of arrests, detentions and welfare details of suspects.

That's quite unnecessary

Even if they are unclad

We Nigerians will always obey them

They gat our solidarity

We gat their protection

Every upright, legitimate, respectful, decent, obedient and hardworking Nigerians love SARS

Only the criminal minded doesn't

And all over the world, there has never been peace for the wicked

Today is my 5th day in Nigeria ever since I came for a vacation and I have never been harassed by any SARS or whatsoever

Instead, they gave me accurate directions when needs be, tell me more about Nigeria and the role of police in it, gist and laugh with me and even went as far as asking me what I brought for them from Abroad

I was highly impressed

So I gave them a riffle and a cane to beat the hell out of every stubborn Nigerian and continue the good work they've started

That doesn't sound like a good idea.. identity of Sars operatives should be concealed and made to fight what they were created for instead of doing check points up and down and looking for Yahoo boiz.

I wonder why reforming the police is such a rocket science for these people.

Sars is like swat team in USA. Police only use swat team in USA when it involves robbery or serious gun violence like terrorists attack, hostage situations..

You won't just see them on the road harassing motorists or anyone with tattoo. That's the job of regular non threatening police.
They invade houses after serious intelligence gathering and the suspect is in particular building.



Why is that so hard for this useless transmission IG to do that he keeps coming up with useless idea for something in front of him?

They know they are doing the wrong thing, that's why when you bring out your camera phone they can shoot you.
They should screen them for drugs and alcohol .

Right step in the right direction.

By extension, the whole Nigerian Police need to be reformed, from top to bottom. And the kind of training they give those guys need to be reviewed.

It is not just enough to train a guy how to use a gun, training of the mind is of more importance.

Sars is a good initiative but the problem stems from leadership.

When the head is bad, the followers would be terrible. They should disband Sars and let a police tactical unit handle robbery and violent crimes. All former Sars operatives should be sent to Borno to fight boko rams.

Yes o. Hardworking and decent guys rarely have issues with them..

If u go to Ibadan, Duge office of SARS in Ibadan, u will see how market women, okada drivers, sellers etc laugh and play with sars officers..

No doubt, some of them are bad.. just like we have bad lecturers, good lecturers, bad doctors, good doctors..

etc, if there are people who need our hate and beating, it is our politicians
