Following the recent release of the Lagos State EndSARS Judicial Panel Reports, the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), has told the visiting United States Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, that his government will allow the system to exhaust itself, and will, therefore, wait for pronouncements from state governments which set up panels to probe police brutality in the country.
Buhari said this at State House, Abuja, while receiving in audience the US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken.
Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, disclosed this in a statement titled ‘Endsars probe panel report: we wait for the states, President Buhari tells Blinken, American Secretary of State.’
Speaking, he said, “So many state governments are involved, and have given different terms of reference to the probe panels. We at the Federal have to wait for the steps taken by the states, and we have to allow the system to work.
“We can’t impose ideas on them. Federal Government has to wait for the reaction of the states.”
