#ENDSARS: 15 Times SARS Has Allegedly Killed Innocent Nigerians

SARS officials

The Nigerian Police among other things was instituted to protect lives and properties. What happens when the institution saddled with the aforementioned responsibility becomes something we need protecting from?

Every day people leave their houses with the fear of falling prey to SARS. People pray against armed robbers, bandits, accidents etc. SARS has now been added to the list of evils to pray against.

it wouldn’t be out of the ordinary to see parents praying for or anointing their children against the dreaded SARS official.

Many innocent young Nigerians have lost their lives as a result of their brutality.

Killings, torture – both mental and physical, extortions, threats amongst a list of other vices have become a norm in daily encounters with the men of SARS.

Nigerians have poured out en-mass on Twitter to share the atrocities carried out by these men.

Let’s look at some of them:
