Guys, there is gist.
A police friend just gave me some details about this whole issue on SARS, we might be in the middle of a cartel war.

HOW SOWORE CAN GALVANIZE NIGERIAN YOUTHS NOW
Four days after the @YeleSowore-led #RevolutionNow Movement embarked on a protest across parts of Nigeria, some of the participants arrested by @PoliceNG and the DSS, are still illegally incarcerated at various detention facilities.
Four days after the @YeleSowore-led #RevolutionNow Movement embarked on a protest across parts of Nigeria, some of the participants arrested by @PoliceNG and the DSS, are still illegally incarcerated at various detention facilities.
2/ Illegally incarcerating the hapless and aggrieved Nigerian youths who embarked on the #August5thProtest, beyond 24-48 hours, runs afoul of Section 35 of Nigeria's 1999 Constitution, which guarantees Right to Personal Liberty.
3/ Section 35 (5) provides that an accused person who has been arrested on the allegation of having committed an offence must be charged to court within 24 hours where a court of competent jurisdiction is located within a radius of forty kilometers from the police station.
We received over a thousand reports/complaints from highways across Nigeria this week, all bordering on the criminal activities of @PoliceNG officers who have surpassed the threats of armed robbers and kidnappers on our highways. These reports have been corroborated by operators.
The increase in harassment of road travelers by some members of the #Police force and SARS (tactical squads generally) team. Buses are indiscriminately stopped on the highway, commuters are asked to step down for a prolonged search & privacy violated with illegal phone searches.
Some passengers are detained if not abducted while the driver is advised to proceed on the journey. This act has become too rampant and poses a SECURITY threat on travelers. This illegality has now become a culture & rights of rogue police officers.
