Superstar
singer and actor, Folarin Falana aka Falz The Bahd Guy, has shared his bitter
experience with SARS Officials following the #EndSARS movement launched by
private Nigerian citizens.
The singer
who had an interview with NET in preparation for his first concert ‘The Falz
Experience’ said;
“On this
particular day, they spotted us somewhere in Lagos and doublecrossed us, they
then asked us to come down from our car. My manager tried to have a conversation
with them but before he knew it, they gave him a dirty slap, he was close to
tears. They said they would arrest us and take us their station. I wanted to
sue them, not as a lawyer, but solely because they violated my human rights,
but then, it is really sad that they think because they have guns, they think
they are in a position of power and they use these to oppress poor Nigerians.”
He also
suggested a solution;
“The entire
police force needs a revamp. The problem is that so many of them are not as
educated as they should be, so they treat people in a certain way. People are
speaking up because things have gone out of hand. These are the men who are
supposed to protect us, but they are opening fire on us. They have resulted to
targeting young guys. These days, once they see a young man looking flashy,
they automatically think you are a yahoo boy”, he concluded.

It is indeed violation of human right too bad
