Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, has set up a new unit called the Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) Team, to replace the disbanded Special Anti-Robbery Unit (SARS).
Force Spokesperson, Frank Mba, disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday.
According to the statement, prospective members of the new team are expected to undergo a psychological and medical examination to ascertain their fitness and eligibility for the new assignment.
The latest development comes 48 hours after the IGP dissolved SARS following nationwide protests.
