President Muhammadu Buhari has reacted to the wide #EndSARS protests by many Nigerians.
The President took to his Twitter handle on Friday to call for calm.
He said he has been briefed by the Inspector-General of Police Mohammed Adamu.
He promised that the police will be truly accountable to the people.
Buhari wrote: ”I met again with the IGP tonight. Our determination to reform the police should never be in doubt. I am being briefed regularly on the reform efforts ongoing to end police brutality and unethical conduct, and ensure that the Police are fully accountable to the people.
The IG already has firm instructions to conclusively address the concerns of Nigerians regarding these excesses & ensure erring personnel are brought to justice.
”I appeal for patience and calm even as Nigerians freely exercise their right to peacefully make their views known.
”The vast majority of men and women of the Nigeria Police Force are patriotic and committed to protecting the lives and livelihood of Nigerians, and we will continue to support them to do their job.”
