Police misconduct responsible for #EndSARS protests — PSC

Chairman, Police Service Commission, Musiliu Smith, on Tuesday attributed the recent #EndSARS protests across Nigeria to the misconduct of officers.

He spoke at the Force headquarters, Abuja during the opening of a one-day retreat organised by the Force in collaboration with the PSC for members of the police management team.

Smith described complaints of gross misconduct against police officers as alarming.

He said given the number of cases against them, the Force might not be able to pay damages awarded by the various panels of inquiry.

“We’re always having a lot of complaints from members of the public against police officers.

“I believe that #EndSARS resulted from serious misconduct of some of our personnel.

“I want to advise that we review the arrangements we’re making for investigating such cases.

“We should ensure that investigations are thoroughly conducted and whoever is the police officer that has been indicted will be punished according to the law.

“If we are doing that, some of the public complaints will go down,” he said.

Smith urged the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, to work closely with the commission on the recruitment of credible Nigerians into the Force.
