Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has joined the #EndSARS protesters to call for the total reform of the Nigeria Police Force.

Wike had on Monday announced a ban on protests in the state, an order which was defied by the protesters who thronged to the streets in large numbers.

Addressing the protesters, Wike said “I never supported us to be here. I took an oath to protect the lives and property of people of the state. The blood of Rivers of people matters to me.

“Rivers State has suffered in the hands of SARS. When we raised the alarm of SARS activities, they did not give attention but it has now happened in other places.

“No governor in this country can say they have challenged SARS the way we have done. When there was so much kidnapping in this state, I raised an alarm to the federal government.

“I am the only governor that has come out to start end SARS protest. No other state. We have lost so many people in this state to SARS. No state supported us. SARS has killed our people a lot.”
