Nigerian musician Azeez Fashola, popular as Naira Marley, has cancelled his planned protest against a police unit accused of harassment and brutality.
The protest was to be held in the commercial capital, Lagos, from 09:00 local time.
But he has tweeted that “there’s a lot of changes being made right now”:
The Special Anti Robbery Squad (Sars) was on Sunday banned from carrying out stop and search duties and setting up roadblocks.
The Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, has said “far-reaching reforms to reposition Sars and other tactical squads for better service delivery” are being undertaken.
