A young #ENDSARS protester who was arrested and brutalized but is now free has taken to his social media page to appreciate every one who fought for his freedom while he was in jail.

The young man identified as Wale shared photos of his swollen face which is a result of the beating he got at the hands of those who detained him and he was thankful that he could once again ‘smell fresh air”.

In a new development, two people are feared dead with many others injured after a Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) rammed into a crowd of #ENDSARS protesters at Alagbado, Lagos.

In a video shared online, a crowd is seen gathering as youths carried away two lifeless bodies.

A medical team who volunteered was deployed around Amikanle area to attend to the wounded before those with severe injuries were moved to Cavesbury Hospital.

According to witnesses, the silver SUV deliberately ran into the protesters in a bid to scare them off the road.

Although the driver of the vehicle was yet to be identified, it was gathered that an angry mob destroyed the SUV as well as a tricycle involved in the accident.

Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye has finally ended the nationwide #EndSARS protests.

Adeboye made the endorsement in a tweet on Wednesday evening.

“Our daughters will not be able to prophesy and young men will not see visions if we don’t keep them alive.

“I support the youths in this peaceful protest as they “speak up” to #EndPoliceBrutality #EndSARS #ENDSWAT.”

Adeboye, who is a mentor to Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, had earlier in the year embarked on a protest against the killings in several parts of the country.

He had two weeks ago called for restructuring the country, a move which was criticised by the Presidency.

Thousands of youths have been protesting against the extrajudicial killings by policemen perpetrated mostly by men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad.

The protests have continued despite the disbanding of SARS.

About 10 persons have been killed in the protests according to rights group, Amnesty International.

Our daughters will not be able to prophesy and young men will not see visions if we don’t keep them alive.

The Nigerian Police Force have announced that officials from the disbanded Special Anti-Robbery squad are barred from joining the newly set-up tactical unit, SWAT.

One of the criteria for the selection of SWAT officers stipulates that they must not have worked for SARS, according to a memo that was shared by the Police.

Other key points on the new unit are ;

Officers to be recruited must also have at least seven years policing service experience, and must be passed physically fit to withstand training and operation.

They will also undergo medical and psychological fitness to certify them fit medically, emotionally, and psychologically.

“All personnel will as a critical pre-requisite undergo and pass medical examination, psychometry and toxicological screening for drug of abuse which will be conducted by the Police Medical Services during training and those found to be unsuitable shall be discharged”.
