Nigeria Twitter Reacts To Order To “Overhaul” SARS

Nigeria twitter has reacted to the immediate “overhaul’ of Nigerian police’s special anti-robbery squad (SARS) by acting president Yemi Osinbajo.

The directive came after months of street and social media protests against the police unit which has, over the years, become synonymous with brutality and wanton arrest.

Nigerians have been reacting to the news since the order was announced and praised the acting president for putting an end to the victimization of Nigerian citizens by SARS.

The convener of the #EndSARS Movement, Segun Awosanya, led the pack of those who are jubilating.

We WON Guys! #EndSARS #ReformPoliceNG @julietkego @Tutsy22 @DrJoeAbah Time to build a new. The #NewNigeria is real. Congrats to @PoliceNG as we begin to reform. Out with the Old and welcome the New. 👏🏼👏🏼 #OsinbajoDelivers pic.twitter.com/jHlyjbirsn

Last week, Acting President Yemi Osinbajo sacked the DSS Boss over the invasion of National Assembly

This week, Acting President Yemi Osinbajo orders the overhaul of SARS

Maybe Next Week, Acting President Yemi Osinbajo would be sworn in as the New President of Nigeria. #EndSARS

That Prof Osinbajo attended to #EndSARS is another good score for the administration. Can’t blame me for I’m starting to see that PMB is the problem here
