BIAFRA : #EndSARS: Super Eagles stars kick against police brutality

 





Players in the Nigeria national team have identified with the widespread call to end police brutality in the country.

Protests have been going on simultaneously across the country as many have expressed their reservation particularly against the activities of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), a unit in the Nigeria Police Force.

SARS officials have been accused of harassing the public while discharging their duties across Nigeria and they have even been fingered in the death of scores also.

In different tweet messages on Friday, Ahmed Musa, Leon Balogun, John Ogu and many others all spoke against police brutality on citizens.

Ahmed Musa wrote: “In a world where genuine love for ourselves seems to be so scarce, I sincerely pray that the right thing is done to put an end to the strife. #EndNorthBanditry #EndPoliceBrutality”.

He wrote: “The reasons for the #EndSARSProtests have just come to my attention via very disturbing images & tweets. It is never good when those charged with protecting the citizens are now terrorising, extorting or even killing the same citizens. I support #EndSarsProtests #EndSars Flag of NigeriaBroken heart.”

John Ogu, a midfielder simply wrote: “Enough is Enough… #EndSARS”.

There have been pockets of cases where some professional footballer players in the country have shared their unpleasant experiences at the hands of SARS.

One of such was former Enyimba player Stephen Chukwude who according to reports was accosted by SARS officers on his way to Enugu and accused of being a “Yahoo Boy” on account of owning an iPhone and driving a Mercedes Benz.

Earlier this year also, Remo Stars defender, Tiyamiyu Kazeem, was allegedly shot dead by a SARS officer after an encounter in Ogun State.

Just like the Bring Back Our Girls campaign, the #EndSARS is also gathering momentum.
