A serving nurse with the University of Medical Sciences in Ondo State is currently missing after he threatened to commit suicide on Sunday.  Taiwo Adeleke, who works at the Emergency and Accident Unit of the government-owned hospital, wrote on Sunday that he was already “depressed”. Adeleke had taken to WhatsApp to drop a suicide note for friends. It reads, “If anything happens to me, you all know who to hold responsible. I’m depressed. This might be the end.

SARS also known as the Special Anti-Robbery Squad have been called out on several occasions for notoriously carrying out extra-judicial killings and allegedly harassing innocent Nigerians. Human rights organisations define extra-judicial killings as a deprivation of life unjust or unconstitutional, and clearly a homicide. The #EndSARS movement has become a political campaign opposing SARS unit of the Nigeria Police Force. The campaign started as a social media campaign using the #EndSARS to demand for government to scrap and end the deployment of SARS officers due to their unlawful arrests, high-handedness, humiliation, unlawful detention, and extortion.
