Former US President, Bill Clinton has reacted to the reported killings of unarmed #EndSARS protesters in Nigeria.
Taking to his Twitter handle, Bill Clinton expressed his concern over the ongoing unrest in Lagos and urged the Nigerian government to engage in peaceful dialogue with protesters and end corruption.

He wrote: “I am deeply concerned over reports of violence in Lagos and urge the Nigerian government to engage in peaceful dialogue with the #EndSARSprotestors for police reform and an end to corruption.”

SARS was a special police unit set up decades ago as Nigeria, Africa’s most populous country, battled rising levels of crime and kidnappings.

Initially, it was successful in reducing cases of violent crime but more recently the unit had been “turned into banditry”, according to Fulani Kwajafa, the man who set up SARS.
