Share FacebookTwitterPinterestLinkedinWhatsappTelegramEmail 131 Beyonce finally share her sentiments towards the ongoing police brutality taking place in Nigeria, where 10,000s of people have taken to the streets to protest SARS under the banner, #EndSARS and innocent lived have been lost. SARS was a special police unit set up in 1984 as Nigeria, Africa’s most populous country, battled rising levels of crime and kidnappings. Initially, it was successful in reducing cases of violent crime but more recently the unit had been “turned into banditry”, according to Fulani Kwajafa, the man who set up SARS. The protests were sparked by a viral video allegedly showing SARS officers killing a young man in the southern Delta state. Authorities denied the video was real. The man who filmed the video was arrested, provoking even more anger.
