Ride-hailing app, Bolt has responded to accusations that its driver was complicit in an incident of brutality meted out upon its passenger by officers of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS). According to the e-hailing company, its driver only stopped because it is unlawful to ignore law enforcement.

Recall that Nigerians have been calling for a boycott of the e-hailing app after a driver was alleged to have been involved in the harassment and extortion of a passenger by Special Anti-Robbery Squad SARS officers.

The incident triggered other victims who took to social media to berate the ride-hailing company and accuse its drivers of aiding SARS officers in manhandling and extorting the passengers.

In a video posted on twitter, the Bolt driver in the incident appeared quite unbothered while his passenger was being maltreated. This prompted many commentators to conclude that he connived with the security operatives to harass and extort the Bolt user.
