"All protesters have been released!!!" he wrote on his Instagram page.

He went on to address why the Special Anti Robbery Squad needs to be disbanded.

"Amidst it all. We must not forget the reasons we are protesting, we must not forget the peaceful manner of the protests and we must most certainly not back down until our demands are met! You either live for something or you die for nothing. Sars ending is a great start but the task is far from completed! now let’s end police brutality as a whole!" he added.

"This is just the beginning!! We won our fight to #ENDSARS .. now Reform the Nigerian police!! #Endpolice brutality! We deserve good governance," he later said on Twitter.
