The Inspector General of Police Mohammed Adamu has created a new unit known as Special Weapons and Tactics Team which will fill the gaps arising from the dissolution of the defunct SARS.

Last Sunday, he disbanded the Special Anti-Robbery Squad due to alleged extra-judicial killings, wanton arrests and dispossession of property through physical assault and other intimidation tactics.Prospective members of this new team will undergo psychological and medical examination to ascertain their fitness and eligibility for the new assignment.These members are to commence training at the different Police tactical training institutions nationwide, next week.

It's the same thing that we are saying, you are dessoulving SARS to introduce SWAT abeg who we dey decive for this country na shey no be the same set of people? Laslas all na SCAM

This is what they called new creation SWAT that has not even been in operation. Can Nigerians see the abracadabra?

Where are these SWAT police coming from? Are they not from d same bad police men? What's 'Special' about them? Where are d 'Weapons'? And where's the 'Tactics'? This is just a change of nomenclature!!! They actually need special training, put d nation first above self and money

IGP, this must be same SARS, new name. We don't want NEPA to PHCN scenario. ENDSARS and STOP_SWAT .

You don't know anything about police force,,, I suggest you resign now fools

Are you kidding me! EndSWAT

We all wait and see the outcome of this new formation.

This is unacceptable. U cannot just sit on ur own and form another dead squad. SARS or whatever u call it end

Without training? This stuff is just a game cos I understand well.... It's just those that are desolved from being 'SARS' that are now 'SWAT'

Special Weapons 👇

Immitation, photocopy, shadow, copy and paste that is all this administration is all about. No originality, no facts just immitation. I swear, I detest this administration!

SWAT is meaningless to what Nigerians are expecting to hear: (Special Weapons) are they discarding AK47, and use UAV, RPG, F-35, target acquisition and evaluation, precision guided ordinances. Nigerians should learn to stay indoors this this time.

Bullshit!!!

Same peoples for the same job but under the new name swat to dulgde public outcry

I am yet to understand the philosophy behind the use of words ' Special Weapons' sounds like a militarized kind of team.

U ppl we dey bring this news no get sense join Clean ur mouth So as he talk am una no get shame come deliver am This uncle bubu nah joker EndSWAT IGPResignNow

If the govt. already agreed that there is a need for Police Reform, the first thing is to change the leadership of the PoliceNG. Bring in a new leadership with new vigour and energy. If possible, change members of the PSC too. Don't keep old leadership and expect a sig. change.

Edikang Ikong, Vegetables Soup or Ugu ...still the same thing. Same soup, different names. SARS/SWAT....all the same. EndPoliceBrutalityinNigeria ReformThePoliceNG
