SARS WAS NEVER MEANT TO FIGHT ROBBERY
That SARS should end shouldnt have been up for debate if Nigerians know that SARS was d Police wing of Ibrahim Maradona Babangida& #39;s terror machination, set up to crush prodemocracy agitations in 1992, before the eventual 1993 June 12 impasse.
Its true that Danladi Mirenda gave d coinage & #39;SARS& #39; to his team when he was moved from Benin to Lagos in 1992, but this team were men from FCID, Adeniji Adele, Zone 2 Anti-Robbery & State CID Panti. These anti-robbery units were already doing hatchet jobs for Halilu Akilu& #39;s DMI.
Publishers of TELL Magazine will have a full library compliment of how SARS in 1992 hounded Gani, Beko, Mayegun and others at the peak of Babangida& #39;s scheme to transform himself into a civilian President, after the sham elections that gave majority seats to his front party, NRC.
While IBB& #39;s govt made it look like SARS was set up to curb Shina Rambo& #39;s rampage in Lagos, i remembered TELL Magazine raised an alarm then that Brigadier Togun was coopting SARS men for IBB& #39;s National Guard. Togun is today Chairman of Amotekun as appointed by Seyi Makinde. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😃" title="LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit geöffnetem Mund" aria-label="Emoji: LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit geöffnetem Mund">
SARS attained its current level of notoriety when Abacha disbanded IBB& #39;s National Guard after the New year of January 1994, and those drafted from Police returned to SARS. T& #39;was this SARS that coordinated Gani& #39;s arrest in January 1996, before he was handed over to SSS Shangisha.
Since SARS started in 1992, it existed & operated only in Lagos until about 2002. It was OBJ & Atiku that duplicated SARS nationwide. Because he knew youths dont know this, today, Atiku, our father of amorphous democrats is also tweeting #EndSARS
Una see say this life no balance?
All d stories about SARS being set up to fight robbery will make Gani turn in his grave. Majority of d human right cases Gani did was against SARS & SSS. You dont know anything about SARS if u& #39;re asking for its reform. SARS is like cancer. You dont reform cancer; you cut it off.
These are daredevil men allowed liberty to write their own rules and are largely disconnected, even from CPs & IGP& #39;s command. Crime fighting has gone tech & digital. We dont need to be at the mercy of bloodthirsty policemen filled with Indian hemp, before we feel safe.
