The Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, has set up a new unit to replace the dissolved Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS.
The new unit called Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) Team will help fill the gaps arising from the disbandment of SARS.
This was contained in a statement signed by Frank Mba, the Force spokesman on Tuesday.
Mba confirmed that IGP Adamu has “ordered all defunct SARS personnel to report at the Force Headquarters, Abuja for debriefing, psychological and medical examination.
“The officers are expected to undergo this process as a prelude to further training and reorientation before being redeployed into mainstream policing duties.
The medical examination will be carried out by the newly set up Police Counselling and Support Unit (PCSU).
It added that “the IGP has set up a new Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) Team that will fill the gaps arising from the dissolution of the defunct SARS.
“Prospective members of this new team will also undergo a psychological and medical examination to ascertain their fitness and eligibility for the new assignment.”
This new guys should be graduates and not school certs holders. For the fact that one must have undergone a high institution, there should be some sense of belongings and dealings with the society.
