End SARS: UK govt reacts to protests in Nigeria, what to expect from Buhari
The British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Catriona Laing, has reacted to the #EndSARS protests going on all over the country.
In a tweet from her verified handle, she noted that “peaceful protests are powerful”.
Laing also said that the recently passed Police Act by President Muhammadu Buhari, should provide a good foundation for accountable community police force.
“Significant protests over #SARS demonstrating Nigerian people’s desire for police reform. Peaceful protests are powerful.
“The Police Act recently passed by @MBuhari provides a good foundation to build a more accountable community police force,” Laing wrote.
On Friday, men of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) threw teargas canisters at peaceful protesters in Abuja on Friday.
The police tear-gassed the protesters in a bid to disperse them.
I don’t know what is wrong with our leaders why can’t they fix our country to a better place, despite people being hungry yet people are insecure, Police and sarz are the most notorious people in Nigeria yet mbuhari is still silent on the heldsmen terrorism I think we the youth needs to fight four right so that they whole world will see how we have stranded in our own country …. Endsarz now we are ready to fight till the end enough is Enough let’s put a stop in Police brutality Nigeria should be great again
I beg what concerns the UK. They didn’t interfere in USA police killing blacks so why are they interfering in Nigeria case? Hypocrite.
