A thread on what’s happening in Nigeria at the moment 🇳🇬 #EndSARS 
The Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) is a unit of the Nigerian Police Force.
Over the years, there have been public records of SARS units committing acts of corruption and malpractice across the country.
Despite this, the Nigerian government has failed to take action.

SARS units across Nigeria have been unlawfully arresting and detaining young people across the country - kidnapping, murdering, stealing and extorting money from them and their family members.
Many young people have shared their stories of police brutality here on Twitter.
On Wednesday, young people in Lagos took to the streets and
began protesting for the end of SARS, the end of injustice and the end of death at the hands of Nigerian Police.
