That is not true bro.

I encountered them once. They left me after identification and plenty talks with stupid questions like "Where did you get this car and how did you get money to buy it ?"

Say I am lucky or whatever but as annoying as they sounded and i almost lost it. They did not touch me.

Not saying they should be left that way but they should be reformed and not proscribed.


Don't misquote me.

This ia a Nationwide thing besides the nothern region and i never said they will always destroy your ID card. They do it regularly by telling you it's fake.

So if you are in charge you will not have an anti robbery squad again because of hash tags ?

He can always reconstitute an entirely new anti robbery squad that's devoid of all the inconsistencies or device new means of tackling crime.

SARS are doing well but the bad eggs among them are really painting them black.
They stationed their vehicle infront of almost banks around my hood hunting for yahuu boys and you see them harassing everybody. To carry phone is a big problem not to talk of other gadgets.
You cannot buy new cloth again because of Sars.

Naija don tire me.
Sars no day do any well. Never had an encounter with them but a friend did. Each time I recall his condition when he came back after about one week with one part of his body bigger than the other and looking very white, my prayer is that no innocent person should experience Sars but real criminals

Following the #EndSARS campaign against the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), a sports reporter and presenter at Sports Radio Brila FM, Ohagwu Timon ChukwuEmeka, has recounted his encounter with the security operatives while returning from Uyo, Akwa Ibom state where he had gone to cover the World Cup qualifiers against Zambia...

SARS operatives have been accused by Nigerians of brutality, molestation and extortion - hence the campaign to 'end the anti-robbery unit'...

Read below what the Sports presenter, ChukwuEmeka shared on Facebook;

My SARS Experience

I was returning from Uyo after the World Cup qualifiers against Zambia. Somewhere along the journey, I decided to buy bottle water to quench my thirst, then the film started

Act One, Scene One: It was a SARS check point, and I was buying one bottle water with 1000naira, the guy's eyes came alive, and he said to me, "Starboy abeg come down come show me your bag"

Well, even as a journalist I understand not to argue with anyone with a gun adiamama, so I came down, showed him my bag. He signalled the others like, "Maga don land"

They became courteous, carried my bags for me into their office, one of them started questioning me, "Confess wetin dey your bag before we start to search", I had nothing on me and did not know how they would react if I told them I was a journalist, so I held back and allowed them play their hand..

One of them rushed in, overtly excited and screamed at the one questioning me, "Collect him phone search am na, na Starboy wey him be"... I decided I had had enough, and told them I was a journalist who went to Uyo to cover the Super Eagles game, the mood in room changed immediately, then I brought out my ID, in that moment they discovered I was a pressman

The man who rushed into the room was crestfallen, he left immediately in disappointment, obviously to go look for the next victim, the one questioning me looked at me and said, "Super Eagles win nahh, na una Amaju give all the money, me self nah Nigerian"

In that moment, the one at the checkpoint walked into the room and said,, "Oga Pressman, make we at least share that water change", as an Eko boy, I knew there was no leaving there without parting ways with something, so with 500naira and a handshake the producer screamed cut, and the movie was over...

I was lucky, many others are not that lucky, though I believe a whollistic reform is more realistic...

I nevertheless join millions of Nigerians to say #ENDSARSNOW

Infact Nigeria as a whole needs to either be ended or restructured.

In one of my posts, I mentioned that we need to know their rules of engagement and where it starts or stop.

You are talking yahoo boys. They even tell u you if you can not produce your insurance papers, they want to lock you up until you bribe them.

I am not supporting their brutality.

In as much as I don't subscribe to SARS brutality and extortion as their method of policing, I still prefer we use #REFORMSARS not #ENDSARS.

Cos we still have to check crime. Unless we want criminals to roam freely

Mr man in order to get to the clouds, you have to aim for the moon. This is how people like you killed restructuring by opposing Ipob that was the only source of pressure for government.

Political agents of APC darkness.

She even called her husband and he spoke with them on d fone dy refused. They took the woman to their station. The husband had to get a lawyer to come bail his wife....No pray to enter Sas trao bcus dy are fools...dy only fear lawyers and pressmen

Nobody can ever have any thing other than negative expirience with SARS.

One day, I think it was in 2011, we were returning from a colleague's dad's burial in Akure when my boss' car had a fault around Ogere on Lagos/Ibadan Expressway. While the mechanics were fixing the fault, I sat by some off duty SARS guys under a shade to eat bread and sardines. These guys were gisting away, like I didn't even exist, about folks they have killed. How they robbed some late night traveller off N400K and merchandise, how their new boss is an obonte and how bizz has been slow under him, how "any maga wey cross my way...me, I go faya am!"

I developed cold chills on many levels and couldn't even swallow conveniently less they turn their attention to me. I left Ogere that afternoon with the impression that I'd rather be attacked by highway robbers than be left in the care of SARS.

Don’t let this clueless IGP deceive you people. We did not say reform SARS We said # EndSARS Our message was deliberate Reforming sars in like spraying perfume on shiit. Before SARS did our police not catch armed robbers, kidnappers & murderers?

This happened in Osun State:
My younger bro was sent to the bank to pay some amount into an account, he came back and told everyone he paid but he can't the Teller.
The person who is supposed to receive the money has been calling that he is yet to see the alert.
I was suspicious that something is wrong, on further pressing, we found out that the boy did not even get to the bank and SARS people collected the money from him on his way claiming he was a Y boy.
He was too scared of the SARS people to report that they took the money from him at First.

SARS feeds on People's ignorance and Fear
