Shove that committee of looters up your ass Mr man.
It took you and your cronies days to respond to the cry of the people you govern. After it had garnered attention from the international community.

SHAME ON YOU !

SHAME ON APC !

SHAME ON PDP !

SHAME ON NIGERIAN POLITICIANS !

This time we the leaders of tomorrow today are not interested in your familiar empty promises.

We the YOUTHS are taking the initiative, steps and actions to restore the glory of our land.

Remember you called us LAZY; but guess what? We are now actively involved cheesy

Most likely a useless committee. I'm happy to be wrong.
You are 109% correct, as Governor is it today okowa became aware that the commissioner of police, and all the police in his entourage are corrupt? It is when people start to protest he remembers? Hypocrite Okowa, isn’t sars the Nigerian police? More than 3/4 of the Governor’s entourage have been attached to sars at one time in their police career.

He pretends he cares about security, let him publish the details of security vote money he receives every month, people in Delta State should be protesting against the Governor, instead they are throwing stones at a flying bird.

The older generation is a failed one filled with dull minds and yet any small thing they're quick to lash out at us. Pls no one should ever compare them with this new generation in anything because the one wey dem dey tell us since na lie. Them worse pass for all the bad things ur seing today. Just that internet made oours more pronounced. If not for respect shaa... So they're not aware there must be checks and balances in every area of life especially public service n government And yet these fools travel out for holidays and are aware of what obtains there. Or na olosho them go dey fvck for there? If it takes protest to give them the sense to function like normal people then e clear say this protest just dey start oo.. Nonsense old dullards angry

Hmmn, I don't doubt it. There is a large presence of yahoo boys in delta state especially around the Sapele, Jesse axis. Even Warri is getting a large influx of them as the heat in Sapele is becoming too much. Some are moving to Asaba too. Sars makes a fortune in delta state.

police brutality in Kaduna isn't as worse or near pronounced as that of Delta but when El-rufai launched a similar committee, everyone screamed it is a scam.

So why do you believe Delta committee will deliver?

Las las, all of us na hypocrite sha

This comitee is from the protesters and not okowas comitee. Harrison is a known Hunan right activist.

Don’t mind does Criminal youths in Sapele, & Jesse, you know what you are talking about, there is no way criminals like that will want the police around, if you are driving a Mercedes Benz at 21, you don’t play professional soccer, your Father is a farmer, police have the right to investigate you, even professional athletes in the United Kingdom, and United States that earn millions of Pounds & Dollars complain about police profiling, not to talk of criminals in Nigeria that can’t show any source of income, that want to just wonder around with impunity?

Collected from who? Yahoo boys, nobody that works for his money will give police 1 Naira, did you steal the money? One thing I know for sure, if you have plenty of legit money, police will be your friend as they claim, they will even volunteer to be your guard, truly the whole Nigerian society needs reform, not just the police, but in reality only criminals & people with something to hide in their closets fear the police.

The Nigerian police force should stop the use toture to get confessions from suspect if they can't investigate let them close the case...
I feel it will help them develop and find better ways of solving crime...
They should also let them know the consiquence of assulting civilians
And the punishment should be dismissal or 5yrs jail term...
Finally let them know that the Nigerian citizens are allowed to video them....

Know your rights as guaranteed by the Constitution of 1999 as Amended, if they use torture, & it can be proven, the courts will throw it out, the whole system is corrupt not just the police. The police is only a reflection of the people they oversee, why will an elected official have 25 police men in his entourage?

Good one

Let me tell you the way SARS operate in Delta State.

They see a very neat vehicle in front of their vehicle, they then tell themselves that the owner of that car "Go get money".

They overtake the vehicle to see who's driving. Once it's a young adult, they block the vehicle like armed robbers, come down of their vehicles and ask the driver to come down.

They ask you what you do for a living. After you tell them, they ask to see an ID card.

If your job is not related to the government, they say it's a lie. And say you're a criminal.

1. They then ask to see your phone. If you refuse, they slap you, hit you carelessly and cock their guns ready to shoot you.

2. If you agree, they go through your phone and immediately they see that you have a foreign number among your phone contacts they say you're a criminal. If they see any foreign number on your WhatsApp, they say you're a criminal.

3. Any picture of a white person on your phone, they say you're a criminal.

4. If you don't meet any of these criteria they then ask for your papers. And tell you there's one particular vehicle paper that is missing.

The summary is that you must give them money.

If your case is number 4, then you're lucky. If your case is between 1 and 3, then start saying your last prayer.

If you have dreadlocks, tattoo, or earring on your ear, then you're dead!

They will check your account balance and how much you have inside will determine how much they will collect from you.

You're right.. They trail you right from the express into summit road and overtake you just like armed robbers with guns and arrest you.. After that they'll drive your car behind them to their office for more extortion and brutality.. Especially if you own a GLK and the windows are tinted..You must encounter them.

If everyone held their state Governors accountable, only Almijiris will complain about Buhari, or look to Abuja for anything, what does okowa do with the security votes money he receives every month from Abuja? is it not the same sars & police he uses the money to pay?

And what do you say about places like Lagos state and Abuja. These are states where 1 in every 10 person is a fraudster especially Lagos. Police must be making a lot from there.

It's a step in the right direction. How do u expect victims of SARS to get justice and compensation if not through setting up committee where victims can go and lay their report?

This is commendable from Governor Okowa, as the committee is made up of mostly human rights activitists and not government officials.
This should have been the action taken by the Federal Government instead of rushing to rename SARS.

It's obvious millions of Nigerians have either been killed, tortured, maimed, kidnapped, ransomed and extorted by SARS and only a commission of enquiries can reveal the extent of the damage and assuage the feeling of Nigerians.

It is a lie, say the police, sars is only a unit of the police, sars has never collected 1 Naira from me, I have lost count the amount of time the police have obtained money from me, even under false accusation, I had to bail myself.

Stop been fooled & showing your ignorance, no Committee set up by the oppressor can give you justice, section 46(1) of The Constitution exclaims if your rights are infringed, about to be infringed, take it to the nearest high court, problems with most kids they don’t read, so they don’t know what the law demands, they prefer I hearsay from naive minds.

Knowing and insisting on your rights without having knowing any influencial person in Nigeria is tantamount to commiting suicide. The police will just shoot you, plant a gun on you and label you armed robber.

The courts and judicial system is so corrupt that it's impossible to get justice. You can be imprisoned and left on the awaiting trial list for longer than the sentence itself even if you were found guilty.

You blame the police & the Court, a coward dies a thousand times, nowhere in the world are your rights given to you on a platter, did you not read what I wrote? “If it can be proven” you fight for it, even today in the United States today you must be aware of the Black Lives Matter? go and read the biography of Madiba, so you might have a little sense, cowardice Chicken.

So you are insinuating that millions of Nigerians protesting are liars, or that thousands of people telling their horrible encounters with SARS are hallucinating. Awkuzu SARS in Anambra must be a holiday resort, where you are given massage by Csp James Nwafor. All the nairalanders narrativing their horrible experiences here are all liars. You are the only truth teller in the whole of Nigeria.

If you claim you have never been harrassed, by SARS, it's either you are not in that age group (18 - 35), you don't drive a flashy car, you have no tattoo or piercings on your body or your are poor.

But, you lie if you say you don't know any youth that had been harrassed and extorted by SARS. Most celebrities and influential people joining the protests had never been harrassed by SARS, but the know someone who had.

Coward why Keep calling sars, say the Nigeria Police Force, Maybe you don’t know SARS means Special Anti Robbery Squad, Of The Nigeria Police, you cannot separate SARS from the Nigeria Police. Where is sars office in your state? all sars personnel’s are attached to a police station, awkuzu sars In Anambra state is it not attached to a police station in the Local Government? or does sars have their own separate office?
