Recall that the Inspector-General of Police, Adamu Mohammed on the 13th of October disclosed that the unit of the police, SARS, is disbanded and further noted that they are banned from stop and search activities.

According to Adamu, the newly created SWAT unit would not be concerned with routine checking, checkpoint stand, and other non-robbery activities.
