In a post on Twitter, the NHRC boss asked the Oyo state governor, Seyi Makinde and the Oyo state police command to ensure the SARS officer is punished.Gov@seyiamakinde, my team is on this but this report on a @PoliceNGSARS Officer popularly known as "Idowu Sars" who pulled up a gun & beat up a woman & her 3 month old baby in Ibadan is disheartening. Immediate action needs to be taken TOWARDS JUSTICE!More videos of "Idowu SARS" with his gun out in public, violating the rights of Nigerian citizens. The Oyo State government and @PoliceNG should not allow this to go unpunished. This kind of lawlessness costs lives and makes people lose faith in the force.'' he tweeted Watch videos of the SARS official being confronted and the mother speaking below.
