In the spirit of understanding, let me continue to clarify for our @PoliceNG & the general public. We are not asking for the Police to be disbanded, we are asking for a shut down of a demonstrably criminal network within the Police structure and a general Police reform. #EndSARs

There is no doubt that the excesses of the Police (brutality and corruption) is undeniably entrenched in the structure as is due agelong neglect and the Call for reform has been due for a very long time. @YakubDogara @bukolasaraki @abellodam @alouibrahim92 @SamuelOgundipe

The wake up call is to put premium on the lives of the future of Nigeria (our youths) who are the target of the menace. Authorities should see this as a Call to focus on narrowing the gaps between the public and the police, which have created a lot of distrust. @oge_dola

Our authorities should take responsibility and look into those institutional gaps that make it possible for some police personnel to act beyond what the law permits. The unprofessional attitude of the police is deep and has existed over a long period,... @SaharaReporters

...we can all agree that this has been made worse by the lack appropriate recruitment policy, which is subject to abuse by almost everybody. As such we end up recruiting persons of questionable characters due to lack of proper vetting. @FemiOke

Every Senator or Rep, every Oba, Chief or Emir, every businessman or woman etc want favors for their “candidates”. Likewise, we fail to provide appropriate training inline with career progression. These are some of the issues we must tackle if we must move forward. No sentiments.

I recall upon assumption of office of the honorable minister of interior, closing the gap between the Police institution and the public was his initial focus but there are some constitutional amendments required to grant his effectiveness in engaging.

This is not an attack on institutions but a citizens action on systemic rot. It is not just SARS, we're only using the ovehelming manifestation of impunity within the Police structure as a means of conveying an agelong issue bordering on oppression of the citizenry. @BBCWorld

#EndSARS ion just a one-off event against SARS, or only a call for Police Reform, it also speaks to impunity of FRSC, as well as all uniformed agencies and parastatals in Govt. Politicians using sirens and escorts to oppress and harass commuters etc @fisayosoyombo

We are calling the attention of our Govt to put premium on the lives of our citizens across Nigeria. We are asking for a conscious system overhaul that has suffered neglect over the years and buried under political rhetorics. @adeyanjudeji

The issue is beyond protests. We have a voice and we control the socialmedia space, even if we are irrelevant in the political space as systemically disenfranchised. We are using our United voices to demand that Govt pay attention to Critical issues that is decimating our people.

We understand that disbanding the police is not an option and that is not what this call is about, because certainly there will be no vacuum because criminals will take over the space.

But the authorities MUST identify the bad eggs & deal with them accordingly, while encouraging those who are good & professional with regards to Police impunity & corruption. Accept the assurances of our regards and best wishes as we await a proper response on the issues raised.

The ideological Movement will continue to stand in the gap to protect the lives of Nigerians and collect data on impunity of all kinds especially on the activities of Police and SARS. We will deploy technologies that will monitor this and flood the media space with our findings.

The Call also emphasizes the security lapses in the country while Police are distracted. This is our common goal void of politics, ethnic and religious bigotry. We owe this to our children who must not wear the chains of slavery and oppression. #EndSARS #ReformPoliceNG

In the light of following through decorously on this matter, people really want to testify but they are unsure of their protection. I hereby ask the general public of their preferred trajectory.
