Nigerian Government announced on the 13th of October that they have created the SWAT (Special Weapons and Tactics) unit in place of the disbandment of SARS.

However, Nigerian artists alongside Nigerians are kicking against the idea, saying a new unit doesn’t change anything.

Mr. P complained of the fact that changing the name would not do anything.
