A man identified as Anthony Abraham has taken to Instagram to narrate his ordeal in the hands of the Special Anti Robbery Squad, SARS officials whom he claimed allegedly beat him to stupour for doing nothing.

According to him, the only crime he committed was asking why they asked him to move into their van after they stopped him on a bike. The next thing he felt on his face was a brutal slap before being forcefully thrown into their waiting van.

I don't know what i did to deserve the kind of beating i received f SARS officials yesterday

I was on a bike going to Alagbole from Berger when they stopped me and asked me to come down from the bike which i did. Immediately, they told me to enter their van and i asked them why and that was it, rain of slaps landed on my face. They bundled me and threw me inside the siena van. Inside the van, they started beating me, i tried to block the slaps but one of them held my hand so that my face will be open to receive the slaps. They beat me as if i was a criminal before asking me what i do for a living. I told them that i am a blogger and also an actor/entertainer.

The beating continued again. Seriously, i was scared for my life, i began to doubt if they were truely SARS officials or they are kidnappers or ritualists. A lot of thoughts were running through my mind. By now we were approaching Ojodu going towards ogba.

After all the beating, one of them then searched my phone and saw truely that i was a blogger, he saw my blog and also saw my skit videos this was after beating me o. He searched my pocket and saw some money.

One of them said i should come down but the other one said i should bring the money on me, i refused and he then slapped me again and again and then again. I told them i wanted to use the money and he said he saw another one thousand naira in my pocket while searching me. I told him that was my T-fare.

He said that he will take me to the station that why am i wearing a ripped jeans. Still, I refused to give him the money before they pushed me out of the vehicle after one of them said that i am a blogger that they should let me go before i start another #ENDSARS campaign.

They also forced me to apologise to them for making them think i was a yahoo boy which i did. I still cant believe that this happened to me in my own country.

We are no longer safe in this country.
Those who are supposed to protect us are actually killing us.
We need to #ENDSARS with immediate effect because we really cant see the effect of SARS in our society. SARS has done more harm than good.

This is a true life story and it was not sugarcoated. It happened to me yesterday.

Is he smiling in the last pix?

Sars just keep using yahoo boys as excuse to extort. They know what they are doing. In fact there should be a law against brutality
