Heavy protest against the continuous and unending harassment of unarmed citizens by men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) unit of the Nigeria Police Force, has hit Benin City metropolis, the Edo State capital.

Igbere TV reports that the protest on Tuesday, came a day after the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, placed a ban on the FSARS and other Tactical Squads operating across the country, from carrying out routine patrols and other conventional low-risk duties.

Our correspondent reports that the peaceful protest grounded commercial activities around Benin-Sapele road, Upper Sokponba road, Saint Saviour area to First East and Second East Circular and Airport roads in Benin City.

Commercial activities in some parts of Benin Metropolis including the king Square(front of Oba Palace), were equally grounded during the protests by youths who chanted anti-SARS songs.

The youths called on police authorities to go beyond the rhetoric of banning SARS and other affiliate units of the Force by ending pervasive human right abuse, extra-judicial killings, harassment and intimidation of unarmed civilians under the guise of looking for internet fraudsters in the State.

Some police operatives who accompanied the protesters, prevented hoodlums from hijacking the rally and descending into chaos or violent clashes with other road users.

The protesters called on relevant authorities to prevail on corrupt security personnel to respect the privacy of Nigerians.

The protesters brandished placards bearing various inscriptions such as, “My house is my privacy”, “Save us from the onslaught of SARS. Nigeria is my Country” among others.

The protesters who finally converged at the front of the palace of the Oba of Benin, were later addressed by the Deputy Governor of Edo State, Rt. Hon. Philip Shaibu, who vowed to see that the Obaseki led government see an end to harassment of youths in the state by security officers.

Mr balls the baller ,Show me a picture of you protesting from anywhere you live ...
Its funny how guys who have never even protested at private secondary schools once would be shading people for not speaking up every time ....
Protest in Nigeria is not as easy as other countries , the scapegoats sowore used October 1st are currently in prison , who would pay the 100k bail for them you
if you don't have money in your account, and you are not yet tired of life, please stay away from these protests...
Manage the sh*thole till you can get your visa to another country ....
My 2 cents

Oyaaaa Benin people

Sweet

I wonder when Africans will wake up and fight back

Sarz are criminals in uniform.

#ENDSARSNOW........

Nigerians are awake

if SARS can't be reformed then it should be scrapped as they are now a burden. they are mainly extortionists, murderers and thieves

Trash Country NIGERIA where Human Right is blatantly undermined. God punish all criminal SARS.

NIGERIA is a Trash Country.

Edo human trafficker, well done. I hope your sisters are back from Italy. How can Edo be Lagos? Lagosians do not traffick their sisters to Italy for prostitution neither do Lagosians engage in Cult wars in Italy, Spain or Germany like Edo people do.
