#EndSARS Protests May Result State of Anarchy, Says Mai Mala Buni
AREWA AGENDA – Mai Mala Buni, governor of Yobe state and acting chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), says #EndSARS protests may result in anarchy if not properly handled and there is a hidden agenda in it’s process.
Thousands of Nigerians have been in the streets protesting against police brutality. The protests compelled the government to disband the special anti-robbery squad (SARS) which is notorious for human rights violations.
In an interview with BBC Hausa on Monday, Buni said “Hoodlums can utilise the gathering to cause confusion and terrorise other innocent citizens,”
“The ongoing protests show that there is a hidden agenda, after the government has responded to the protesters’ demand.
