In a short video shared via his official Twitter handle, President Muhammadu Buhari promised that the dissolution of the Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad (FSARS) is only the beginning of extensive police reforms in the country.
He said, “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”
