The Speaker of the House, Rep. Femi Gbajabiamila has said the House would ensure that it appropriates funds for the compensation of the victims of the #EndSARS protests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gbajabiamila said the action would be in line with the House resolve to ensure that the lives of those reportedly killed during the protests in parts of the country did not go in vain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To get them compensated, the Speaker said, the House would obtain the list of all the victims and use the 2021 budget process to get them compensated through their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Commenting on the dissolution of SARS by President Muhammadu Buhari during Tuesday's plenary, Gbajabiamila said the Nigerian people have spoken and that the government listened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said the House had reached some resolutions last week on the brutality of SARS officers and that it was gladdening that the unit has been disbanded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"The people that we represent have spoken, and the government has listened. The President has unequivocally dissolved SARS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"We should get the list of those that lost their lives so that during this budget process, we'll be able to appropriate for their full compensation,\" the Speaker said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gbajabiamila also noted that the House must keep to one of the resolutions it reached last week, which said the Green Chamber would immediately commence the legislative process of reforming the Nigeria Police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Speaker of the House, Rep. Femi Gbajabiamila has said the House would ensure that it appropriates funds for the compensation of the victims of the #EndSARS protests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gbajabiamila said the action would be in line with the House resolve to ensure that the lives of those reportedly killed during the protests in parts of the country did not go in vain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To get them compensated, the Speaker said, the House would obtain the list of all the victims and use the 2021 budget process to get them compensated through their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Commenting on the dissolution of SARS by President Muhammadu Buhari during Tuesday's plenary, Gbajabiamila said the Nigerian people have spoken and that the government listened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said the House had reached some resolutions last week on the brutality of SARS officers and that it was gladdening that the unit has been disbanded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"The people that we represent have spoken, and the government has listened. The President has unequivocally dissolved SARS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"The House had last week reached some resolutions on the issue. It shows that we're on the same page with the Nigerian people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"We should get the list of those that lost their lives so that during this budget process, we'll be able to appropriate for their full compensation,\" the Speaker said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gbajabiamila also noted that the House must keep to one of the resolutions it reached last week, which said the Green Chamber would immediately commence the legislative process of reforming the Nigeria Police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He indicated that a proposed legislation would soon be tabled on the floor of the House on that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is for the above purpose that the leadership of the House would meet with the national leadership of the Nigeria Bar Association (NBA) on Wednesday, the Speaker said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the end of his remark, Gbajabiamila requested his colleagues to observe a minute of silence in honour of those who lost their lives in the protests, which they all obliged.<\/p>\n","post_title":"SARS protest: House to appropriates funds for compensation of victims","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"sars-protest-house-to-appropriates-funds-for-compensation-of-victims","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-10-13 16:10:05","post_modified_gmt":"2020-10-13 16:10:05","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/newsspecng.com\/?p=585","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":true,"total_page":579},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"epic_block_3"};

He said the House had reached some resolutions last week on the brutality of SARS officers and that it was gladdening that the unit has been disbanded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"The people that we represent have spoken, and the government has listened. The President has unequivocally dissolved SARS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"The House had last week reached some resolutions on the issue. It shows that we're on the same page with the Nigerian people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"We should get the list of those that lost their lives so that during this budget process, we'll be able to appropriate for their full compensation,\" the Speaker said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gbajabiamila also noted that the House must keep to one of the resolutions it reached last week, which said the Green Chamber would immediately commence the legislative process of reforming the Nigeria Police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He indicated that a proposed legislation would soon be tabled on the floor of the House on that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is for the above purpose that the leadership of the House would meet with the national leadership of the Nigeria Bar Association (NBA) on Wednesday, the Speaker said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the end of his remark, Gbajabiamila requested his colleagues to observe a minute of silence in honour of those who lost their lives in the protests, which they all obliged.<\/p>\n","post_title":"SARS protest: House to appropriates funds for compensation of victims","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"sars-protest-house-to-appropriates-funds-for-compensation-of-victims","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-10-13 16:10:05","post_modified_gmt":"2020-10-13 16:10:05","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/newsspecng.com\/?p=585","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":true,"total_page":579},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"epic_block_3"};
The protesters have been on the streets across the major cities demanding end to police brutality by operatives of disbanded FSARS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The approval for implementations of the demands was granted at a meeting between the police management and stakeholders at the instance of the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, disclosed this in a statement titled, \u2018Presidential panel on police reforms swings into action, plays 5-point demand of protesters.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said the demands acceded to included halting use of force against protesters and unconditional release of arrested citizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meeting organised by the Office of the Inspector General of Police and National Human Rights Commission, was a multi-stakeholders\u2019 forum attended by leaders and representatives of civil society organisations in Nigeria, activists from the entertainment industry and the #EndSARS movement and development partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Ministry of Police Affairs and Police Service Commission were also present at the meeting that affirmed that the five-point demands of the protesters and the EndSARS movement are genuine concerns and will be addressed by the government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adesina quoted a communiqu\u00e9 of the meeting signed by the IGP and Executive Secretary of the National Human Rights Commission, Tony Ojukwu, as, \u201cFollowing the public protests regarding various forms of human rights violations by the Special Anti-Robbery Squad and the consequent disbandment of the unit by the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, there arose the need for stakeholder engagement to build trust and restore public confidence in law enforcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe agitations also brought to the fore, the need to implement the recommendations of the Presidential Panel on the Reform of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Forum was addressed by the Inspector General of Police and the Executive Secretary of the National Human Rights Commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Forum collectively: welcomed the dissolution of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad by the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu; reaffirmed the constitutional rights of Nigerians to peaceful assembly and protest; further affirmed the sanctity of life of every Nigerian and the role of the Police in protecting this right; affirms that the five-point demands of the protesters and the ENDSARS movement are genuine concerns and will be addressed by the government.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adesina added that the forum noted that the dissolution of SARS presents an opportunity to embark on comprehensive reforms aimed at repositioning the Nigerian Police Force as a modern, responsive and citizens-centred law enforcement organisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The statement added, \u201cThe Forum further notes that the proposed reforms should be anchored under the basis of the White Paper on the Report of the Presidential Panel on the Reform of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad which was jointly authored by the National Human Rights Commission, the Federal Ministry of Justice, and the Nigeria Police Force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Forum affirms that reform proposals for the Nigerian Police Force will be based on Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and existing legislations such as the Nigeria Police Act, 2020, the Nigeria Police Trust Fund Act, 2019, the Administration of Criminal Justice Act, 2015 the Anti-Torture Act, 2017, and the National Human Rights Commission Act, 2010 amongst others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cFollowing the dissolution of SARS, the Forum calls for the following immediate steps to be taken in restoring public confidence and trust in the Police: An order by the Inspector General of Police to all State Commands to halt the use of force against protesters; Unconditional release of arrested protesters and citizens; Open communication and outreach to citizens to establish trust and confidence and a roadmap for the implementation of the White Paper of the Presidential Panel on the Reform of the SARS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Forum welcomed the proposal to set up an Independent Investigation Panel to look into the violations of human rights by the defunct SARS and other segments of the Nigerian Police. The Forum agrees to the setting up of this Independent Panel by the National Human Rights Commission within the next one week. An open call for Memoranda from members of the public whose rights have been violated by the defunct SARS and other segments of the Police will be released by the Commission within one week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Forum recommends the psychological evaluation, training and retraining of disbanded SARS officials prior to re-deployment.
