WHY SARS WAS CREATED IN 1992?

Barely 24 hours after elderstatesman & former Vice President @atiku, joined millions of other concerned Nigerians, at home & in the Diaspora, lending his voice to #EndSARSBrutality, #EndPoliceBrutality, the Buhari& #39;s admin seems to have woken up?
2/ In a 7-paragraph undated statement by @PoliceNG Public Relations Officer, @frankmbablog, IGP Mohammed Abubakar Adamu rolled out basic professional codes that should guide men & officers of @PoliceNG, FSARS, including Tactical Squads & Special Tactical Squads across Nigeria.

3/ Yesterday, in a copious thread: How To #EndSARSBrutality In Nigeria, I opined that #EndSARS ain& #39;t going to #EndPoliceBrutality, as the rogues in FSARS are products of a rotten @PoliceNG. They& #39;ll still be recycled within the Force & impunity continues. https://twitter.com/HisKnowledgeabl/status/1312465033771720704?s=19">https://twitter.com/HisKnowle...
4/ Among other things, I had also opined that FSARS shouldn& #39;t be DISBANDED, but compelled by IGP Adamu, to go back to Status Quo Ante of tackling armedrobbery, kidnapping & other violent crimes across Nigeria.

Alas, today, Sunday, October 4, 2020, IGP Adamu concurred with ushttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👇" title="Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten" aria-label="Emoji: Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten">

5/ Howbeit, Yours Truly is cautiously optimistic about the latest 10 key positions of IGP Adamu on how men/officers of @PoliceNG, including FSARS, Tactical Squads & Special Tactical Squads should conduct themselves in their day-to-day operations.

Reason: We& #39;ve been here before.

6/ SARS CREATION: In 1992, Lagos State Commissioner of @PoliceNG, Simeon Midenda, created a Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), to address the rising incidences of armedrobbery in Lagos State.
7/ Before its creation, in 1992, policemen at a checkpoint in Lagos, killed one Col. Rindam of @HQNigerianArmy, sparking protests by soldiers.

The Khaki boys went on a widespread manhunt for policemen, as they all abandoned their roadblocks/checkpoints back to their barracks.
8/ That period under review, one of Nigeria& #39;s most dangerous armedrobber, Shina Rambo, famed after the armed-to-the-teeth Johny Rambo, in the popular Sylvester Stalone movie, “First Blood,” terrorised Lagos and the entire South West, including Benin Republic.
9/ Against this backdrop, CP Midenda created SARS with no fewer than 15 policemen who operated plain-clothed & under-cover in Peugeot station wagons.

They also operated without showing off their walkie talkie & guns.

SARS operated with an element of surprise, not like thesehttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👇" title="Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten" aria-label="Emoji: Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten">

10/ SARS gave robbers sleepless nights, hunting them down to their beds, hotel rooms & hideouts, restoring palpable calm. 1996, Lagos military administrator, Buba Marwa launched OPERATION SWEEP, a task force of 4,000 specially trained men from the Police, Army, Navy & Air Force.

11/ However, between 1992-2002, SARS spread to other State Commands.

Sadly, since 2002 & lately, SARS operatives whose mention hitherto sends shivers down the spines of criminal elements have now become criminals themselves, daily terrorising innocent & hardworking Nigerians.

12/ To reform the rogue unit, it was renamed Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad (FSARS) in Aug 2018 by former IGP Ibrahim Idris, with VP @ProfOsinbajo as Acting President. Yet, the unit continues to terrorise innocent & hapless Nigerian youths, with reckless abandon, till date.

13/ Things have gone so bad that FSARS operatives meddle in civil matters such as Landlord/Tenant Disputes; Debt Recoveries, etc.

Operatives arrest & extort innocent Nigerian youths for wearing dreadlocks, driving good cars & using iPhones. 

But these ain& #39;t violent crimes?

14/ FSARS under IGP Adamu have gone rogue, patrolling Nigerian streets in rickety vans, looking for innocent Nigerian youths to brand Internet Fraudsters (Yahoo boys), in a bid to extort them.

FSARS have gone so rogue that its operatives now move about with POS machines?
