Nigeria’s Police Crisis: Why #EndSARS 2.0 Seems Inevitable (2026) | Hotpotato Podcast S4 EP10

Police brutality in Nigeria is once again dominating conversations—and this time, it feels different.

From the shocking killing of a restrained civilian in Delta State to repeated reports of excessive force, Nigerians are asking one major question: are the people meant to protect us becoming the threat?

In this episode of the Hotpotato Podcast, we break it all down:

Why police brutality keeps happening
Whether anything has really changed since #EndSARS
The role of accountability (or lack of it)
And the big question… are Nigerians actually safe?

Recent incidents have sparked outrage nationwide, with viral videos showing victims pleading for their lives before being shot—fueling anger and distrust toward law enforcement.

But on the flip side, authorities claim reforms and retraining efforts are ongoing. So what’s the truth?

This is not just a conversation… it’s reality.
