The nationwide protests were a culmination of weeks of anger and outcry online by the country's young people over claims of kidnapping, harassment and extortion by a police unit known as the Special Anti Robbery Squad . On Thursday, a protest was led in Lagos Island by Folarin Falana, a lawyer and singer, and Runtown, an artist known by that stage name. They were also joined by Nigeria's biggest female performer, Tiwa Savage.
— Bop Daddy October 7, 2020 Read More"People have been posting online about it for years, but it has been the same sluggish attitude and response to it. Nothing has changed and people keep on being harassed. That's why we have taken to the streets and we want the government to listen," he said. "I am marching for the ones that are not recognized. We are surprised by the numbers that came out and we are prepared to march again," he added.
— 👑✨IYAWO THICKER BODY✨👑 October 9, 2020 Nigeria's police force had responded to the public outcry last Sunday by banning the unit from carrying out any stop-and-search activities. SARS, as well as other tactical police units, are now prohibited from"carrying out routine patrols and other conventional low-risk.
— FK. October 9, 2020 Media personality Toke Makinwa was also among those who protested."People are constantly calling my show with reports of harassment," she said. "One man told me they pulled his phone and searched his banking app, they took him to an ATM to withdraw money for them. Nigeria has reduced its citizens to doing everything by themselves. SARS should not be one of the problems we have to face. You are supposed to be anti-robbery but we are afraid of you.
