#EndSARS: What Anyone Wears Or Drinks At Protest Grounds Is No One’s Business – Lilian Afegbai

Nollywood actress, Lilian Afegbai has come out to blast Nigerians who attack ladies for what they wear during #EndSARS protests.

She recently revealed that it is nobody’s business what anyone wears or drinks at protest grounds.

According to her, only a shallow-minded fellow will leave the seriousness of the protest to focus on the lifestyle of other protesters.

She added that the most annoying ones are the citizens that still criticize even when they only protest online.

His words, “Why are some of you so shallow minded? So because people dress up and go to protest, it now means they are losing focus? A lot of you writing messages on Instagram and Twitter, you have not one day come out to protest or even come out to share food or even as little as water and you have the audacity, the effontery to say people are coming out to dothis…if they are coming out to drink champagne or henessy, is that your business? Atleast they are out. Do you think its easy to stay under the sun everyday to protest. You are the one losing focus not us.”

“So because I am coming to protest I should dress like a mad person? Sorry I don’t have mad people’s clothes in my closet so I am sorry if I will not look mad to a protest.”

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.
