The head of nigerias police says that an elite anti robbery unit will be dissolved immediately and this comes after several days of protests across the country demanding the complete abolition of the special anti robbery squad that misstates of accuse the group of murder extortion and disappearances lets cross now to ana to just joining us live from this is a fairly significant move isnt it whats led up to this. Its it is rob remember since wednesday would been seeing demonstrations on the streets of nigeria in towns and cities some of them very violent yesterday for example one person was killed the police used teargas and live ammunition on demonstrators according to organizers of these rallies at hearing they used Water Cannons and tear yesterdays piles protests on the streets of nigeria the been asking for the dissolution of an elite police unit that has been in operation for more than a decade charged with the responsibility of tackling Armed Robbery and Violent Crimes across nigeria but this police unit is as as activists described it has gone rogue extrajudicial killings disappearances extortion and several abuses you have been levelled against some members of this police unit saws and 3 on all on 4 occasions the Nigerian Government promised to reform it and at some point promising to scrap it altogether because of these atrocities or these allegations however it has failed to do soul each time the police unit was able to come back stronger and with no change in their mode of operation and that angered a lot of nigerians especially the young now generals who have been become more more like the targets of these police units some of them we spoke to said you kind of dress well you can own a lot laptop you can own an i phone or any device that is seed to be expensive when you get stopped and searched by these personnel that cues you of numerous crimes including internet ford and things like that so this they felt that after a long time they need to push their luck and see whether or not these police units will be disbanded and i think the very last fall that broke the camels back probably was a week ago when what an individual was shot by a Police Officer and that set the stage walling its one thing isnt it ahmed to say that the unit is going to be despondent but they offices still exist something has to be done with them is there any indication about where those officers are likely to be placed now. Yeah just a few hours ago the Inspector General of police announced the formal dissolution of this police unit and that members will be dispersed across various units of the police forts in 36. 00 states including the Federal Capital here in a boot or they will continue operate walking as normal Police Officers and now the problem is whether or not these Police Personnel will still be reabsorbed into a new outfit but the Inspector General of Police Promise to set up a very soon to talk owen robbery and other Violent Crimes already Civil Society and activists whove been at the forefront of this push for the disbanding of this police unit said they will keep on mounting pressure on the authorities change sure that some batiks of been part of the former outfit and not reabsorb into the new scheme that will tackle these Violent Crimes and now there is a new strain in the steps of these activists who feel that they are not going to stop at pushing for reforms of the police force and other security is this they want to see more reforms executed in various security outfits in nigeria including the military as well as Holding Politicians Accountable so probably this statement these move by the Nigerian Police and the government has come a time when there are fears that the talks between the labor unions and the government may result in more strikes in the coming days already there with the strike has been suspended for 2 days. And there are some talks about probably the Nigerian Government officials afraid that if these talks fail in the future and these protests continue then it will be something big. Majerus will be facing in the next few weeks or so luckily enough for some of them this issue may die or this issue may die down and people will move off the streets and focus more on the rest of their lives however its not clear whether the Civil Society test of blood right now will go back to the streets and a lot of things to be the way they are thank you very much indeed thats ahmed it just brings up to date from a. Turkish cypriot leader most of our kin she has cast his vote in the president ial election in the islands breakaway north and his running for reelection was joined by his wife for the polling station in the divided capital nicosia also known as left the self declared republic of Northern Cyprus is only recognized by turkey the internationally recognized Greek Cypriot government is based in the south of the island well lets take a closer look at some of the issues at play in this election the island of cyprus has been divided since 1974 into the turkish speaking north and the Greek Cypriot so incumbent president s most of i can see him standing for a 2nd tap he supports the federal accord with the south that contrasts with his rival Prime Minister innocent tata who is closely aligned with turkey and president of egypt burdwan on thursday to open the beach in the town of beit osha which has been off limits since the 1974 conflict the Greek Cypriots condemned the move the European Union said it violated a u.

And on the other side of the. Polarization are those people who believe that federal solution is no longer viable we should look for alternative. Methods or alternative solutions so thats why its important but as you know the un secretary general already did that after the election process he will call for a 5 part meeting which includes the 2 cypriot sides as well as the 3 got powers Turkey Greece and united kingdom. In order to see whether they can jumpstart the cyprus negotiations where they collapsed in crown montana 3 years ago i think thats important because solving the cyprus problem in my opinion can be an important he can be an important trigger in solving the other.
