KanyiDaily had reported that there is an ongoing #EndSARS protest across the country against the SARS tactical unit of the Nigerian Police Force over its brutality, illegal arrest, extortion, extra-judicial killings, among others.

In a series of tweets on Saturday, the hacktivist group accused First Bank of deducting money from accounts of those participation in the #EndSARS protest.
