Sauti Sol's Savara shares his experience with SARS

For the last few weeks, Nigerians have taken to social media to demand an end to the Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS) over police brutality and extortion.

While joining his voice to those calling for an end to police brutality, he shared his experience with SARS during a trip to Lagos.

He wrote: “Many of you might not know this but I have had a personal experience with SARS. I had traveled to Lagos to shoot the video for Suzanna. After the shoot, I decided to listen to some Bangers in the club. BIG MISTAKE.

“On the way to the club, our vehicle was stopped by SARS. They forced us out of the cars and told us to lie on the ground. Being foreigners MZWA and I heavily prayed for our lives. All I heard was the sound of guns being cocked.

“I don’t know where I would be if it wasn’t for the few dollars I had in my pocket. That’s one of my worst experiences with authority. I felt like a terrorist. Sad to see my blood turning against each other. I genuinely pray for all Nigerian youth who go through this every day. #endsars”
