The President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, on Sunday assured
Nigerians that the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, unit of the Nigeria Police
Force, NPF, has ended.
Lawan made the remark while disclosing that Buhari ordered
the dissolution of SARS and not the Inspector General of Police, IGP, Mohammed
Adamu as widely believed in sine quarters.
He made the disclosure while addressing State House
Correspondents at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, after a meeting with Buhari on
Sunday.
The meeting also had the Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila in attendance.
Speaking, Lawan said: “Since the issues raised by the
protesters have been accepted by the government, the time has come for the
protests to stop. Government needs to have time to implement the demands of the
protesters, the protest has yielded the desired result. SARS was ended not by
the IGP but President Buhari himself.
“Buhari made a
presidential statement and that would be the first time any president would say
end SARS and SARS has ended.”
