End SARS: The mindset won’t stop, police need a reform – Ozo
Reality TV star, Ozo has reacted to the call from Nigerians which demands an end to the activities of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS.
The call which has been on for months resurfaced again, a few days ago, after a young man was alleged to have been shot by SARS operatives in Delta State.
Many Nigerians immediately took to social media to call for the scrap of SARS which was created to tackle violent crimes. They claim that the police unit is now a threat to innocent citizens.
The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Adamu Mohammed, has now banned the unit from patrol and unauthorized search of citizens.
Reacting to the development, Ozo who participated in the just concluded BBNaija show said that the mindset that makes SARS what it is will remain even if they are scrapped.
He shared on Instastories:
“SARS is not just a set of people . Sars is a mindset, it’s an emotion dressed up by men in a police uniform. 80 percent of the police men share this emotion
ENDING Sars doesn’t stop this mind set. All they have to do is give them another patrol name.. the emotion continues
The whole police force needs a reform.”
