1001 reasons the Nigerian Government should #EndSARS NOW!

#EndSARS

It is hard to find someone in Nigeria who hasn’t experienced, witnessed or knows someone who has experienced/witnessed SARS brutality. While a lot of us knew ‘whatsup’, the menace became more evident when #EndSARS started trending on Twitter. A lot of other hitherto-quiet people shared stories of their travails in the hands of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad – people whose duty is to combat robbery and protect citizens. See some chilling stories of the evils these men (not) in uniform do.

Sigh. There are more than a thousand and one stories like these, reasons SARS should be disbanded or their modus operandi reviewed. Just follow the hashtag #EndSARS and join the conversation.
