My Junior brother graduated from COOU Igbariam. We got talking about his ordeal with Awkuzu SARS and I am beyond shocked at what my brother went through.
SARS officials stopped him on his way to Lagos by public bus. Asked him to come down and took him into the bush.
A thread
My brother said when he entered the bush, he could hear distant voices both male and female screaming for help.
The SARS official then told him to identify his cult simply because he was wearing designer clothes and shoes. He told them he wasn’t a cult member. Then they
asked to see his phone, he handed it to them. He said they gave it to their tech guy who went through the phone and saw nothing. Then they asked him to take off his clothes to see if he had any tattoos. He didn’t. Now disturbed my brother asked that he be left alone as he could
miss his bus. They asked him to sit naked under the sun until he confesses. Being an MC, after sometime, he started cracking jokes for them and then they released him. My brother was lucky, some others weren’t. He made me understand that it didn’t happen once or twice
But up until he graduated, he kept on being harassed by these people. He also said one time they arrested him, they took him to their station where both male and female people were and there was blood and sanitary pads with tissues all over the place and the ooze from there was
something else and that they’d dip cutlass into acid and use it on people’s back. I wonder why you’re still refusing to lend your voice. You might not be affected today, but what about tomorrow. #EndSARS#EndPoliceBrutality is a movement for us all. Save someone today.
