For more than 11 days, some residents of the nation’s capital have been taking to the streets to call for a reformation of the police and demand improved welfare.
The demonstrations were initially targeted at the special anti-robbery squad (SARS) but they have continued despite the dissolution of the unit by Mohammed Adamu, inspector-general of police (IGP).
The protesters have vowed that they will not leave the streets until their demands are implemented.Advertisement
One of their demands is the prosecution of police officers involved in extrajudicial killings.
On Sunday night, protesters converged on the head office of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) in Abuja.
Subsequently, soldiers and policemen were deployed in various parts of the nation’s capital.
The Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF) and Senate President Ahmad Lawan have called on protesters to discontinue their demonstrations, assuring them that their demands would be met.
