Nollywood superstar actress, Ini Edo has called out Nigeria’s Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo on social media.

The actress disclosed that the Vice President, who was once vocal, has been quiet and in the shadow.

This is despite that the Vice President, in adding his voice to the ongoing protest, said that whatever police unit that replaces SARS must be “acceptable” and is compliant to all the tenets of the rule of law and human rights.

Ini Edo is one of the celebrities leading the protest against the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS; Special Weapon and Tactics, SWAT; bad government and corruption in Nigeria.

The thespian believes that the VP is not as active and vocal as he used to be, tweeting, “I’ve been wondering what could have happened to make our once very vocal vice president @ProfOsinbajo go so quiet and in the shadows for quite some time now?”

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo had told protesters demanding police reform that the Buhari administration is committed to it.

Mr Osinbajo spoke Monday in Abuja while addressing State House journalists.

The vice president was specifically asked what message he had for Nigerians still protesting despite the dissolution of the notorious police unit, SARS.

In response, the law professor said “I think the clear message is that there is a government commitment to ensuring that the process of reforms, those who have committed wrongful acts are duly investigated and prosecuted. And that whatever replaces SARS is something that is acceptable, first of all, compliance with all of the tenets of the rule of law.

"And that human right rights…I think these are deep issues that we are all concerned about, I don’t think one person is more concerned than others. I have also been involved in many cases of many young people trying to resolve this kinds of conflicts that have been reported."
