The Nigerian Police Force have dispersed Abuja #EndSARS protesters with live bullets, water cannons, and tear gas.
Adebayo Raphael, a coordinator of the protests and Co-convener, Centre for Liberty, narrated how the police onslaught on citizens happened on Sunday.
”Fellow Nigerians, we have just been tear-gassed. I can’t see well now. My glasses are damaged. Someone got shot on the back of the head,” he said.
On Saturday, the police also unleashed violence on protesters who converged on the force headquarters in Abuja to demand an end to SARS.
The protesters had converged to demand an end to police brutality and the disbandment of the special anti-robbery squad (SARS) unit which is notorious for human rights violations and extra-judicial killings.
