A Nigerian police unit set up to combat violent crime has instead been systematically torturing detainees in its custody as a means of extracting confessions and lucrative bribes, Amnesty International said in a report published today.

In Nigeria: You have signed your death warrant, former detainees told Amnesty International they had been subjected to horrific torture methods, including hanging, starvation, beatings, shootings and mock executions, at the hands of corrupt officers from the feared Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS).

“A police unit created to protect the people has instead become a danger to society, torturing its victims with complete impunity while fomenting a toxic climate of fear and corruption,” said Damian Ugwu, Amnesty International’s Nigeria researcher.

SECOND YEAR REMEMBRANCE OF MY LATE FATHER, BARRISTER FELIX ODUSANYA DINA.


Two years ago, God called my Father to his side. It has been extremely difficult for me to comprehend that he is gone forever, the sad reality. 

Several people have lost their beloved ones after September 9, 2014, and moved on quickly but my case is quite different. I really don't need anyone preaching to me about "God gives and takes", I know this and much more. I miss my Father, this fact CANNOT change.

How time flies, yes it does. The year 2016 is racing towards the end already, it is yet another day to remember my Father and give glory to God for his LIFE and DEMISE.
