MEMBERS OF NATIONAL ASSEMBLY TO PROBE SARS ACTIVITIES???

The House of Representatives has mandated its joint committee on human rights, police affairs and justice to investigate allegations of extrajudicial killings, acts of harassment and torture against operatives of the federal special anti-robbery squad (FSARS) in Rivers state and other parts of the country.
This decision was the outcome of a motion of urgent national importance sponsored by Hon. Kingsley China and nine other lawmakers from Rivers state.
Leading debate on the motion, Chinda noted that they were concerned about the several complaints of extrajudicial killings and acts of torture on unarmed civilians by operatives of the FSARS.

He said victims of the acts alleged that FSARS operatives often armed with guns, machetes and other dangerous weapons, axes and other dangerous weapons and employ malevolent methods, including planting illicit drugs and other incriminating items and objects on unsuspecting victims.
According to him, it was also alleged that the FSARS operatives also go about with POS machine with which they coerce unsuspecting victims to make money transfers in their favour.
He claimed that “recently, an incident went viral of a SARS officer who was shot dead by men of the Inspector General of Police team after an exchange of gunfire in Port Harcourt.
Speaking further, Chinda said recently, one Ajibade Ademisoye, a taxi driver that lived on Rumuakunde community in Emohua local government area, Rivers state was killed by men of FSARS and thereafter labelled as a cultist. He claimed there were several other cases.
He drew the attention of the House to a recent judgement delivered by Justice Adolphus Enebeli of a Port Harcourt High Court, in which he awarded a cost of N50 million against five FSARS operatives who are currently standing trial for the murder of Messrs Michael Akor and Micjael Igwe at Oyibo Rivers state.
‘Recalls that on December 10, 2016, state and National Assembly re-run elections held in Rivers state, and Mr. Akin Fakorede, the commander of FSARS in Rivers state, together with some other FSARS operatives were seen/caught on camera openly harassing/manhandling INEC officials at the Rivers East Senatorial District collation centre, Moscow road, Port Harcourt on 12th December 2017. However, nothing was done, in spite of several protests and demands for an investigation of the incident”

Chinda said he was worried that a security outfit as FSARS is being turned into a violent terror contraption, whose victims are usually left entirely at the mercy of the FSARS officers until they are able to bail themselves.

Roughly torn between Muslims and Christians, it is at the epicenter of sectarian violence. North Nigeria as a whole is stricken with some of the highest poverty levels in the world.
