The violent reaction of some Nigerian policemen seem to have raised fear in the minds of some Nigerian youths who have suffered in the hands of law officers specifically operatives of the Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS).
On social media, IG followers have blamed the violent conduct of the policemen on a lack of training which has earned them a title not fit for a gentleman.
The phrase "all police are thugs," featured on Instablog9ja's IG comment section as followers shared an opinion.
