The entire police force needs some serious revamp. SARS are particular notorious for brutal attacks on innocent youth. The police is not our friend #EndSARS

I recall my encounter with some #Sars members on my trip to perform In Benin. Our car was stopped and we’re seriously embarrassed for dressing well. They took us to their station and we had to bail ourselves. #ENDSars #ScrapSARS

I have had my own share of the SARS menace. It is high time this harassment stopped. Our voices must be heard. #EndSARS

Basically, #SARS & most policemen instantly assume you are a fraudster if you re pushing a good car. The treatment is usually worse if you got all boys in the car & hell comes down if ya’all wearing blings or shades. #ENDSARS

I have experienced the brutality from some power drunk #SARS police officials as well. Hoping the govt can act swiftly on this one.
