Maybe they do confront armed robbers and kidnappers in your area, but in mine they often go missing when armed robbers are around but are active in accusing well dressed young men, young individuals with cars, young men with quality phones etc of engaging in fraud without proof.

We did not canvas for the end of police
We only asked for Sars to end
No Sars officer is good

flyingpig:
#endSARS

No redeployment to other police units, they'll go on there to continue their acts of wickedness. Sack them entirely before they corrupt other units of the NG Police Force.

Really, did you think this through or are you just being emotional? You think they'd just wake up and sack all the armed men of SARS cause of the evidence against a few? What do you think will be result of throwing men who are used to handling guns into the streets?

I will ready to face the consequences of dismissing them? I'm not in any way supporting their wrong doing but I'm afraid this idiot we just go out there becoming an arm robbers or kidnappers

I know he read a written script.

Aside Abuja, the only place this man attend events in person is the core northern states, anything outside that, he won't even show face.
Nonsense. I think it's time we revolt by collectively voting against anyone above 55yrs of age for elective post

President Muhammadu Buhari Monday in Abuja declared that disbanding of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) is the first step to extensive police reforms by his administration.



Speaking at the launch of the Presidential Youth Empowerment Scheme (P-YES), aimed at creating 774,000 jobs across the Local Government Areas (LGAs) in the country, President Buhari also directed that all those responsible for misconduct or wrongful acts be brought to justice.



''I will like to use this opportunity to say a word on the recent genuine concerns and agitations by Nigerians about the excessive use of force and in some cases extra-judicial killings and wrongful conduct of the men of the Nigerian Police Force,’’ President Buhari said during the launch of the P-YES programme, attended by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Senate President Ahmed Lawan, Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State and Engineer Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State.



He continued: ''The disbanding of SARS is only the first step in our commitment to extensive police reforms in order to ensure that the primary duty of the police and other law enforcement agencies remains the protection of lives and livelihood of our people.



''We will also ensure that all those responsible for misconduct or wrongful acts are brought to justice.



''We deeply regret the loss of life of the young man in Oyo State during the recent demonstrations.



''I have directed that the circumstances of his death should be thoroughly investigated.



''Meanwhile, it is important to recognise that the vast majority of men and women of the police force are hardworking and diligent in performing their duties.



''The few bad eggs should not be allowed to tarnish the image and reputation of the force.''



On the empowerment programme, the President while restating his administration’s commitment to youth development and poverty alleviation pledged that the Federal Government policies of social protection and people empowerment would continue on track, despite the challenges posed by COVID-19 pandemic.



The President, who described P-YES as a cornerstone of his administration’s social and economic development strategies, said it was part of the overall policy of ensuring that 100 million Nigerians were lifted out of poverty in ten years.



''The P-YES is also part of the plan that we adopted in 2016 in which we empowered One hundred youths from each of the 774 Local Government Areas with the necessary tools to acquire skills and establish small businesses.



''Given the success of that initiative, we are now committed to creating 774,000 jobs across all the LGAs, through the P-YES programme,'' he said.



President Buhari, who took a tour of P-YES tools and equipment displayed at the forecourt of Presidential Villa, expressed delight that the materials showcased represent the fruits of the initiatives embarked upon by his administration in 2016.



''All the tools, machines and equipment that are exhibited here, are products of the efforts of these empowered youth entrepreneurs.



''I note with particular pleasure that they were all fabricated in Nigeria by Nigerian youths using locally sourced materials. This is a wonderful and uplifting achievement.



''As an entrepreneurship empowerment project, the P-YES programme aims to address the needs of unskilled and less educated youth.



''It targets key areas of activities that are of practical importance and are essential to every aspect of our economy.



''These include areas such as agriculture and food processing, restaurant and catering, tailoring and fashion design, technical skills such as in the Information and Communications Technology sector, artisanship, welding, carpentry and joinery, other small businesses and activities associated with the micro-economic sector of this economy,'' he said.



The President used the occasion to call on State Governments, Ministries, Departments and Agencies of government to factor the P-YES into their programmes to assist the youth realise their potentials in their chosen fields.



He urged local and foreign private sector operators in Nigeria to also contribute their share to the expansion of this programme through channelling their corporate social responsibility efforts towards skills acquisition, creation of start-ups, and other intervention measures.



President Buhari declared that the expansion of the P-YES would now be vigorously pursued, adding that more resources will be committed to the achievement of its goals and objectives towards youth empowerment and entrepreneurship development.



The President commended the Office of the Senior Special Assistant on Youth and Students Affairs, under Hon. Nasiru Saidu Adhama, for driving the P-YES programme in accordance with the mandates prescribed for the office and the programme.



He expressed confidence that the programme being supervised by the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation would make significant difference.



In his remarks, Hon Adhama assured the President that as achieved in the pilot phase of the programme the selection of beneficiaries in the full-scale P-YES scheme would be done with the utmost transparency and credibility, adding that equal opportunities will be observed in the delivery of equipment, tools and machines to all States and LGAs.

SARS have done more harm than good in Nigeria, if you have time, I'll advice you to research on the total confirm cases of people killed by sars compared to the number of people killed by arm robbers in the last 3 years.

May God forgive you because you are not a Christian. Just creating false image just to pass a very biased message.

Did you carry out any research to confirm that it is just Southern Christian asking for end SARS? Are you saying Muslims can only be found in the North and not South?

Also, where have you read of SARS addressing Banditry, terrorism and kidnapping in the North? Please, show me proof. Rather, what we have is more of attack by SARS in the South even to innocent Nigerians. Are you saying by your Christianity, innocent people should keep dying and that God is happy with this?

:So what worries born again in SARS matter?This is why he is really an phoney and an spotlight quest.I wonder o.He is one of the Islamists roaming around here, the dude has been busted before.

Extensive Police Reforms

Start with the commitment to pay police well. Make policing one of Nigeria’s top paying jobs.

Isn’t it funny how majority of young people when in the first flush of social political awareness and you ask them, 'what Career do you believe should be well-paid?', often say, Policing and Road Sweepers. As mature people, we unfortunately forget this idealistic but true position.

Nigeria is not going to be well served by the police if reforms starts and ends with the Punish end of reforms neglecting the Carrot bit.

You joined Oct 02 2020 claiming born again Christian. Hmmmm why then did you bring religion into this matter. The SARS men are highly unprofessional. I have had encounters with them. In most cases I find it had to distinguish if they are thieves or police on the road. A new unitnwill be formed with better guide lines and sensible modus operandi. Buhari has approved that let's move on. Leave religion out of it I beg you.

Buhari should also scrap the office of Lauretta Onochie cos she seem to be sympathetic to the plight of SARS.

just like that?

When serial killers change their names does that also change their characters?

SARS is still in play ,just saw there van in Afikpo today,more needs to be done .

Magnoliaa:


You should not have included the bolded, rara.

Presenting the rest of us to be just as you are. You're just a police brutality apologist. When 1 million boys were terrorizing citizens during the lockdown, where SARS dey??

Abeg.

Reforming NPF.... how? Disbanding SARS.... fine.... but the problem is not the name... it is the people in the unit. There is a need for such a unit... but the eggs in the unit are bad... how would the bad eggs be reformed? They need to get rid of the bad eggs and up the recruitment standards.

my Opinion Has Never Been To End Sars but To Remove Those Men And Replace Them With The youths, the Youths Protesting. Millions Of Youths Need Employment, many Youths Protesting Are Doing It For Selfish Reasons not For a Better Nigeria's sake

Make I no swear for you, I'm sure you must be a Sars or eating from the table of SARS. A squad that is killing people up and down you said are protecting us? Please i beg if you are a Sars and a good one God will give you a new good job but if you are a bad one the blood of those Sars have kill will hunt you down.

Remii:


sack them to go and officially join armed robbers? Where will you get their replacements? Id it not the same society that is already filled with their likes?

Post them to face Boko Haram or herdsmen.

God bless you. The problem isn't the SARS but reform.
