Since #EndSARS Protest, Hoodlums Now Emboldened To Attack Security Operatives – Osun CP

Commissioner of police in Osun, Olawale Olokode, said since the #EndSARS protest when hoodlums attacked officers and property, criminals now confront security operatives at will.

In 2020, there was a nation-wide protest against police brutality and extrajudicial killings. The protest which was later hijacked by criminal elements led to series of attacks on security operatives and their formation.

Speaking during a radio show on Tuesday, Olokode said criminals now dare security officers, whether or not the officers are in uniform or they carry arms.

“There is a kind of hatred for the police, and many false reports and allegations have been levelled against officers and men of the force,” he said.

“Some members of the public that are bad are now emboldened to face any uniform agent, be it military or police, irrespective of whether they are carrying arms or not.
