The Nigerian government’s decision to abolish a police squad implicated in extrajudicial killings and torture has failed to placate protesters.
A new unitcalled SWAT was formed to replace the disbanded Special Anti-Robbery Squad.
But the protesters are now saying they want to hold the police and government officials accountable.

That don’t apply here bro there’s actual problems in Nigeria. Not white liberals virtue signalling and being used by communist elements.
Do you have to show your stupidity?
Can’t you just protest without smashing property? Why do you have to destroy cars and smash windows? 😒
@Anyanwu Ọnwa no evidence.
@Anyanwu Ọnwa Don’t be too emotional,the world is bigger than you think.
@Watching the Hawks You’re not a Nigerian, you know nothing about Nigeria, you’re just ignorant of Nigeria.
@Anyanwu Ọnwa I’m in PH.
@Watching the Hawks Okay, I’m in the Garden of Eden
hmmmm kay
Is there some organisation stirring troubles in Africa and the Middle East to make refugee problems and political unrest so these organisations would gain benefits?
@Tactical operator run n gun duracoat master of the deserts of Utah
This is what we, the people of Africa and the Middle East, have been trying to say for decades. There are hidden lobbies that always want to create tendencies in our region.
@Tabs T SARS is working for England to put fear on Nigerians not to opposed their neocolonial rule and control Nigerian resources that’s why many politicians are answerable to the Queen of England.
@Tactical operator run n gun duracoat master of the deserts of Utah You’re an ignoramus.
@Watching the Hawks Ohhh my, Sars is working for England?
Bro you are clearly not informed stop spreading misinformation please.
@Mk how can you reform a colonial police system? Nigeria don’t own the police but British Queen. Check Nigerian police history.
Please report on the computer leakage of Hunter Biden and Joe Biden in their involvement in political effects of Ukraine and China.

“We are peaceful protesters, we haven’t hurt anyone” – Hahaha!
Maybe he is laughing because peaceful protest does othing in Nigeria for 50 years
They defended themselves against thugs paid by the government to disrupt the protests.
Another person gaining from the hardships of Nigerians.
@Tabs T ur mad
Fool
Is that Adeola Fayoun
No, she is not.
Am with u my broda
Nigeria is a trillion dollar economy. Alot of stealing going on ..
Our senators r paid $79k monthly
Are you new to planet earth? Everyone already know that
Africa and the USA looks so Similar!
Really? It’s not all huts and starving kids? Who would’ve have thought???
Why you keep deleting my comentaries? This just shows that You suport the manifestations, that are organized by criminals.
This protest is hijacked by Western criminals.
Ur a zombie
@Owen Jesse snr 😂😂😂😂
the government hasn’t learned , there’s going to be no peace if the government is going to sponsor thugs to attack its own citizens..government is heading to a failed state
The life of African civilians and uniformed police or army. Civilians are brutalized always.
Aren‘t they attacking because of the corrupt government?
Excuse me Sir/Madam
Are you saved?
If you died tonight are you going to heaven? Jesus loves you.
they are sending touts to ATTACK PROTESTERS
We move ✊🏾we are tired of our selfish politicians
Shame for police
We no thife to be in presidencal office but honest person
Why is it that the western media always calling Boka harm a tourist group when they’re freedom fighters from the oil companies that is destroying the land of Nigeria
There is no oil in the North East Nigeria or Sahel.
Ignoramus.
Capturing children is freedom fighting to you?
Afroka iz da wa of da futua
we want that crisis, this will only allow the leaders to scram and leave the government for new ones, these old cargos refuse to die, they use every means to stay alive and continue looting, opressing etc. War only makes things better. ask USA!
When the war breaks out, you better be at the forefront.
@itxOrange Gamer mad people everywhere
Britain has robbed and have continued to rob the Nigeria state it created as its core Business Unit in Africa. Britain continue to rule Nigeria by proxy of the Fulanis. How ironic, Britain promoted Christianity in the South while rigging power to favour the North caliphate for their own selfish interest. This documentary series – ‘Journey of African Colony’ provides a background to the Nigeria underlying problems and how it was established by Britain.
And if a Revolution happens in Nigeria where a proper leader comes in to run the affairs, the first country to sanction would be Britain and later they would have their eurofighter typhoons hoovering all over the country and doing the normal business.
The west is ruled by proxy by an unmentionable elite as well.
Job well-done guys 👏👏
How sad and pity people here, tired of govt. Hungry abused by their own govt. That supposedly protect life and properties but terrorized 🙏OH God the most high many are victims of greediness selfishness, in Your hands we offer this to You your will be done Lord🙏
Thank you. God bless you.
It’s a lie they didn’t change anything they actually changed the name from SARS to SWAT which is total nonsense.
Please brothers and sisters of Nigeria please avoid bloodshed and violence
I hat are you talking about ? Do you know the huge number of people police have killed simply because they refused to give them their ATM pin or their phone. And you here talking about bloodshed, Nonsense!
@Austin Ngene so are you in favour of bloodshed? Will you love for this to degenerate into chaos and carnage?
Bro we have no choice again
Because they want this government and the cabals gone.
Disband? Nothing change, they were just rebranded but it’s still the same people and they will continue the unlawful killings of innocent youths!
If the government still want them to keep functioning they should keep them only in the north region; we in the South will form ours and keep our region Safe from unjust killers from the north in uniform! Period😡
Buhari most go
Nigeria is a complete Failed State. We only have evil politicians/police in that zoo call Nigeria.
This killings of young Nigeria youths has to stop
Did anyone think that Buhari and his supporters will just sit back and allow the peaceful protest to gain more momentum? Buhari needs an excuse to send in the military. In Nigeria systemic tribalism, religious oppression and wide spread corruption still exist.
Is that what you are praying for?
@Leonard Orji Offor Olodo.
@Leonard Orji Offor You lack sense
Oh the old paid agitators, those are the worst people they’re ready to sell their soul to the highest bidder… Government can’t fool anyone
The government is trash nineger live matter and the police are dumb they should be protesting to because they don’t get paid enough and they steal peoples money and accessing them of being a thief or a prostitute or money laundering
SIETE GRANDI LIBERATE LA VOSTRA TERRA 🎳😎
… and they can be so quick to blame South Africa for so called xenophobia, whilst the worst is done by their own kind. Just thinking out loud …
Both is wrong South Africans we’re unfair too and so it Nigerian Goverment
You xenophobic idiots never disappoint. What has police brutality got to do with jealousy insecure slayves in SA?
@Oni OLUWOLE What makes me happy now is that you’re focusing your energy on the right course, i.e. fixing your country, instead running to other countries. If you can have you country right you wouldn’t have to be running all over the world causing trouble and getting killed in the process.
@jennifer moiwa We’re unfair to who?
@Cliento Allo Yeah, focus your energy on the ANC who have sold your destiny to white people instead of immigrants ✌️
Can you see what the north people are doing how can Nigeria be together
Bro don’t say Northerners, that’s what the government wants. They want each tribes to hate themselves so we can be disunited and easier to put down. The paid thugs that attacked at Abuja are Hausa because Abuja is in the north, same goes for the thugs in Lagos that attacked which are mainly Yoruba because Yoruba is in the south. Same goes for Edo and other states.
@Mk brother something i think that Nigerians should look into is that very quickly the federal capital Abuja after this regime the federal capital should be relocate where it’s was why do i said so is because there’s no peace in Nigeria since the Nigeria as Abuja his federal capital believe what I’m telling you and also it empowers the northern states to mismanage the country economy.
End sars nw and other corrupt officials
Gaining momentum everyday!! What a time to be alive!!
Instead of them to fight the bokoharam look at what they are doing oh africa
Thanks God to gave us a best leaders and prime minister God bless Ethiopia 🇪🇹
The govt. is not doing well and has to return to the negotiation table.
Nigeria afailed state of Africa
Buhari must go
why?
We ask them to close account and they are changing password, we no go gree
😁That’s original!
That’s a perfect analogy. This police are not fooling anybody.
No more audio ban. We won’t stop protesting until we see actions.
@1:29 hide your wives hide your kids and hide your husbands too. – Antoine Dodson
I’d rather get shot by the police then to get my car broken 🤦🏽♂️
SHAME ON YOU NIGERIA 🇳🇬 😏
BUHARI MUST NOT ALLOW THIS PROTEST TO GET OUT OF HAND BY SWIFTLY ADDRESSING DEMANDS REASONABLY
Police should be erased from planet earth .
Nigeria woken at last congratulations!
If Nigerian cannot protect there citizens now in Anambra state sars killed about 12 protesters and took there body yesterday been 16 October how can we survive this country
