The Inspector-General of Police, IGP M.A Adamu, has ordered the immediate deployment of anti-riot police unit – the Police Mobile Force (PMF) – to protect lives and property of all Nigerians and secure critical national infrastructure across the country.
The IGP in a statement gave the order following the destruction of different police stations in the country by thugs who are said to have hijacked the End SARS protest.
Adamu also ordered massive deployment of Police operatives to strengthen the security around Correctional facilities nationwide.

“Consequently, the Commissioners of Police in the thirty-six (36) States of the Federation and the FCT are to identify and isolate law-breakers from peaceful protesters; immediately arrest and diligently prosecute such perpetrators of violence in their respective Commands.”
