Members of the Revolution Now have clashed with the Nigerian policemen while trying to gain entrance into the Force Headquarters building in Abuja during their protest on #EndSARS.
The protest which was led by the co-convener, Omoyele Sowore, was to mount pressure on the Inspector General of Police, IGP, Mohammed Adamu, to dissolve the Special Anti- Robbery Squad, SARS, unit over assault, extortion, and robbery on citizens.
They tried gaining entrance into the Police Force Headquarters, demanding to speak to the IGP but access was not granted by the security barricading the premises.
After the disagreement, the Police spokesperson, Frank Mba, came out to address the protesters and appealed to them to shun violence as the IGP is working towards finding solutions to the demand to end SARS.
The protesters said if their request is not granted, they will keep up with the action until the Federal Government and IGP Adamu do the needful.
