Tochi Nwawuba: 'SARS Arresting Me For Keeping Beard' by Made4NaijaM4N: 4:11pm On Nov 03, 2019
A Nigerian Engineer identified as Tochi Nwawuba, has shared a video which captured moment he was allegedly arrested, handcuffed and extorted by SARS officers for keeping beards.

The incident reportedly occurred at Lekki Phase 1 and he further claimed that the security operatives demanded a N200k bail from him. He said he however secured his freedom with N50K as they insisted on being granted access to his phone and laptop.

He wrote "I was arrested yesterday by SARS on my way from work....my beards is now Nigeria problem despite I told them my profession as an engineer with my ID but them no wan gree hear my own, all they want to do is to open my phone and laptop that was at the back of my car and me self no gree for them too and this was how I was kept like a criminal at lekki phase1 last night and was asking 200k for my bailout on the road, may God help us in this country becos we have no human right in Nigeria but I later pay 50k cash that was with me to them on the road becos they told me they will shoot me and put a crime on my head if I don't cooperate with them"

This country security service is disillusioned. People are now more afraid of Police than Robbers.

I haven't had an encounter with sars I pray we never meet.


It's like life is no longer free in this country. So someone can't choose his/her style of look?

I could remember back then at school, during exams, a lecture would be harassing guys on deadlock or those that barbed afro, even those that wear blink blink. They call those set of people un serious students.


I just don't know where those educated people, even the SAR got the mentality that keeping beards or appearing on dreadlock or even using Iphones shows that one is a criminal or yahoo person.

For Christ sake he was close to gunpoint!!! after those re.tards had spelt it out to him that he will be shot dead and a crime tagged on him, which I am sure is their stock in trade, what should he have done, stood his grounds and be made a martyr of like the guy at viewing center shot dead by SARS or the rest of the similar cases that have gone cold? He acted smart by paying some money as bailout so he would live to recount the tale in the land of the living but super intelligent f00ls like you will never understand that's why you spew the garbage you just did.
Any time you are faced between living and getting shot like a criminal, stand your grounds

shocked








When you look like an ISIS recruit and the doppelganger of Al-Baghdadi, then things like this shouldn't catch you unaware.
Even Shekau in all his majesty is not adorned in this kind of magnificent beard.
He should be thankful the legal criminals didn't succeed nailing a crime to his head. Next time, he should try wearing a beard bonnet whenever he moves around in Nigeria.

Of course I don't support the action of Sars but I have issues with long beards، dreads, etc. It seems to be a sign of not-too-seroius persons. Personal opinion.
