They should be tested for drugs.

The protesters got what they want.

When they told them what was needed was reform the police force.they insisted on end wars.now sars has ended and it is clear that is not what was really needed

I insist all that is required from the police should be clearly articulated and this system been used to drive reforms must accommodate it

1.No arbitrary arrests for no reason only based on profiling

2.No unlawful detention without trial or bail.This one should be made a crime.Anyone force unit holding a person without trial or bail should be arrested.this would require wider reforms in the justice unit.more courts,more bail processing officers.time to consider private contractors too


3.No unlawful entry


4.Proper police identification

4.Body cameras for all police members which must be used at arrests.those things are cheap abeg.Nigeria can afford it.

These are examples of specific reforms that must be listed.not just end Sars,or end swat

SAME SHIT DIFFERENT TOILET

Why is no one concerned about reforming police to stop collecting charges at road block? Na small thief de later bcom big thief o!

Oga police, Swat in USA don't stop okada rider to check their phones, cars to check their vehicle papers.

They are called upon when higher firepower is need when in a dangerous shootout.

THE RETURN OF SARS PART 2 (SWAT)
THANKS FG FOR USING THE NEW WINE ON THE OLD GALLONS

Same nonsense, different captions. Goverment playing scrabble with its ignorant citizens.

S = SEE
W = WATCH
A = ATTACK
T = THEM

S-SARS
W-WITH
A-ANOTHER
T-TITLE.

Of course it will be foolhardy on the IG's part to dismiss the members of SARS as that will be disastrous to the country, because many of them will become so wild that their wings won't be clipped, let's just hope this replacement will yield a good result.

dederocs:

police have other tactical units they can reshuffle men from, red beret, special forces, and some trained mopol squadrons...armed robbers lurk everyday, there is need for urgent teplacement, let us be objective, let us veer into other demands, this is not the only problem we. have, our main problem is wasting and stealing of our national resources, let us face that now, money used as reccurent expenditures and overheads is too much, more than 70% of our revenue is used to pay people who do nothing for us.

Well, one has to be alive to enjoy anything else we might want to change,

Why change if not for the better? SARS members came from other units before. See how they turned out.

How does police reform stop us from doing other things? It's glaring failure of govt and police that caused the protest.

Do we need to protest next of cost of living, Rif off DISCO charges, unemployment, fuel price hike and others for govt to act?

All the things you mentioned have been mentioned before. In fact I heard Buhari talk of reform in 1984 as military dictator. Only draconian poo followed.

IG announced the end of SARS and at the same time announced the commencement of training for a "new" unit to replace SARS!

1. When did they prepare the training program?

2. Does it mean the plan has been on for some time to scrap SARS?

3. Or is it another "unplanned" plan? The speed of the announcement makes the whole proposition suspicious to me.

Yes i get you, but my point is something needs to fill the gap, i think they learnt a lesson on this one.

SWAT = SARS WITH ADDED TORMENT

The solution of this whole thing is not change of acronyms, its by calling those sars and rebrief them on their scope and the assignment, they change and same confuse people who doesn't know the boundry of their job will continue their harassment on innocent citigens.

vaxx:
so that means Nigeria has to learn from the first two ?

The SWAT (Special Weapons and Tactics) of Ghana Police Service are highly trained paramilitary unit that tackle situations beyond the capability of other departmental units of Ghana Police. SWAT teams are called in when an incident presents significant risk to law enforcement officers or the public. These elite professionals use their advanced training in weapons, teamwork and strategy to resolve crises.

That is Ghana SWAT POLICE

So we should fry bread since Gayna also has swat?

dre11:


THE NATION

Why should all formal SARS operatives report to the force headquarters for debriefing, psychological check and medical examinations? I think it just change of name nothing new.

Remove that name "special" it's getting into there heads. I c no sense in this.

Remove that name "special" it's getting into there heads. I c no sense in this. The government should be careful how they handle this. Intelligent is needed and not force.

ismail4sure:
SARS PRO MAX = SWAT


We don enter am

What version of Operation System(OS0 are they going to run on?
What will be their speed of response.
Can they run at the speed of 1.8 GHz to 2.2 GHz
What about their camera sensitivity.
Will it be glitching or capture even a fast moving image very well.
Let us just wait for this latest release to know if we can buy or push them out of market once more.

So those SARS that gave me some solid strokes on my left arm using the flat side of a sheathed cutlass just for being out around 11pm will be going for SWAT training

WTF is wrong with IGP...

SWAT is still going to be 100% old SARS idiots

no bro, the officers of the defunct SARS won't be a part of the new SWAT ,they will be deployed to a different unit

SWAT= Sars Without Adequate Training

SWAT

These ppl are stupid. Soon they will cool prison, executive compound.

Please Nairalanders I Need Your Helps! i really want to become a billionaire.

Old wine in a new bottle... Content remains same!

#EndSars should switch to #RestructureNigeria

Only then will they listen to us.. only then we can gather more crowd and even earn the backing of some of the Political class.

SARS is just a fraction of our many troubles in Nigeria... You and I know we need more than just #EndSars. Restructuring is the answer and it's only the youth that has the strength and number to make it happen. #RestructureNigeria

timwudz:
Nonsense and buhari

Are cousins !

Lol.... The IGP should dead this idea of SWAT for now.... We know the Nigeria Police does not have the facilities for the so-called SWAT team, abi they gonna use the same template been used for SARS?

SWAT teams in other countries are very intelligent and fearless, Do they have the required gadgets for the new unit? Do they have a special vehicle for the SWAT team? What are the requirements for the new unit?

Are they gonna be paid the same salary?

Until they are fully ready, this SWAT bullcrap should be shelved

Yes definitely, but that doesn't mean the IGP should set up a new unit in just few days, it doesn't make sense

1. Attach more special force to fill in the gap for the mean till everything is ready

2. Draft a new template and policy for the unit

3. Upgrade their training facilities

4. Consult International security outfit for more input

5. Get standard fighting gears and weapons for the unit

6. The unit would only remain in the station until called upon on grave situation the standard policemen cannot handle

7. Get Special Operation vehicle

8. Upgrade their salary, Health Care Scheme, Housing Scheme

9. Yearly upgrade training abroad - To meet up with the new security tackling trends in the world

10. The IGP should step down - He lacks the expertise

Everyone is a coach from the sideline.

With his credentials and experience , yet you claim he has no expertise.
