The Nigerian Twittersphere has been on an awash with calls for scrapping of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) after its operatives allegedly killed a man in Delta state.
Video clips had surfaced on Twitter wherein a witness claimed the young man, who was commuting around Ugheli town in the south-southern state, was gunned down while they fled with his vehicle.
In one of the videos, pedestrians could be seen chasing the operatives involved while private cars closely tailed both the vehicle of the policemen and that of the deceased said to have been taken by them.
“A young man was shot dead today in broad daylight by SARS officers at Ughelli, Delta state. After killing him, they stole his car (Lexus Jeep) and left his body on the roadside,” the witness said.
“SARS officers are now rogue criminals in uniform #EndSARS. Its time the youths declared war.”
