As Nigerians continue to clamor for an end to police brutality, the Federal government has set up Judicial panels of inquiry to receive and investigate complaints of police brutality or related extrajudicial killings by the police.

 

The decision was taken at the National Economic Council NEC which was chaired by the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, on Thursday, October 15. Bashir Ahmad, Personal Assistant to President Buhari on Media and Publicity, Bashir Ahmad, disclosed this on his Twitter handle.
