#EndSARS: Don’t You Dare Discredit Banky W Amid The Protests – Stella Damascus

Popular Nollywood actress, Stella Damasus has jumped on social media to defend Banky W amid criticisms online.

Stella recently revealed that Nigerians should remember that Banky W stood alone during his political campaign to attempt to better Nigeria and fans did not donate to his cause.

According to her, no one should dare discredit the singer because he attended rallies under the hot sun just to convince the people that positive change is needed in Nigeria.

She added that anyone who feels Banky has not done enough to prove his patriotism should run for office too and experience the process.

Her words, “Don’t you dare try to discredit @BankyW o. I no go gree dat one. Where were you when he came out against all odds to try and make Naija a better place? Did you donate 1 naira to his campaign? Did you go to the rallies under the hot sun with him? Why u sef no go try run 4 office?”

The Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) is a Nigerian Police Force unit under the Force Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department headed by the Deputy Inspector General of Police Anthony Ogbizi. Since 2012, SARS has come under controversy for being linked to acts of extortion, torture, framing and blackmail.

The Special Anti-Robbery Squad was founded in 1992 by former police commissioner Simeon Danladi Midenda. The major reason SARS was formed was when Col. Rindam, a Nigerian Army Colonel was killed by police officers at a checkpoint in Lagos.

SARS is one of the 14 units in the Force Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department which was established to detain, investigate and prosecute people involved in crimes like armed robbery, kidnapping and other forms of crimes.

During its formation the Special Anti-Robbery Squad was known to operate covertly. SARS operatives were not allowed to wear police uniform, publicly carry guns or have walkie-talkies. They were given unmarked vehicles with sometimes no license plates or private plate numbers during duty.
