#EndSARS: 32 Erring Officers Sets To Face Prosecution In Lagos State.

Painting in the rain, a mouthwash.

The #EndSARS movement had been influential to end police brutality across Nigeria. The protests were however attacked by hoodlums which had endangered the lives of citizens and vandalizations of government and private properties.

Babajide Sanwolu (Governor of Lagos State) has however listed the names of police officers that will face the wrath of the law for various violations of human rights.

He made this known via his Twitter handle yesterday October 23.

Good morning Lagos,

Today seems like a good day to get on to the work of rebuilding Lagos and ending police brutality.

To show our commitment to the latter, here is a list of ongoing prosecution of police officers for offences related to the violation of human rights in Lagos. pic.twitter.com/dbXdBL0WYZ
