#mySARSexperience. (Thread) My encounter with #SARS occurred while I was on a trip somewhere between Ajaokuta and Anyigba in Kogi State. They had set up a roadblock and flagged me down.When I stopped, one of them came over and asked for the car particulars I obliged. #ScrapSARS
Finding nothing wrong with the papers, he asked for the receipt of my number plate! Number plate receipt? I told him I didn't have and he said he will arrest me and take me to the station, that's when I lost my cool #ScrapSARS
And told him I wasn't going anywhere as no law states that I must have my number plate receipt! He cocked his gun and threatened to shoot me.I don't know where the courage came from, I dared him and told him to go ahead and shoot me. #ScrapSARS
He couldn't. By now though several other road users who had been attracted by my shouting stopped and were gathering all around us. Sensing that they couldn't get away with any misdemeanor, their commanding officer came over and made a show of resolving the matter.#scrapSARS
I was having none of it as I gave them a piece of my mind on top of my voice. After wasting about 30minutes of my time they let me go. I wouldn't advice anyone to try what I did though, because I doubt if I would repeat it either. #ScrapSARS
Confronting and shouting at a madman with a rifle at the ready, is simply the craziest thing I have done. But fam, lemme ask,what is a number plate receipt? #ScrapSARS
