I just got released from SARS because I own gadgets and drive a car (this is the fifth time I’m being embarrassed), I think this is the worst experience I’ve had with them, I hope no PTSD on the way�, however, I’m about to be a japa advocate at the moment ✈️

Quite an experience tho; I was just driving out of my street and they drove abruptly to my front like they’ve been waiting for me and shouted “come down”, I quickly ended the call I was on and deleted my binance and checked slack.

Then I came down, they asked for my papers, I gave then they said “what do you do to buy such a car”, I said I work in the church and assist my father in business (of course, I won’t tell them I’m an engineer) then they doubted cos they felt such won’t raise me such a case.

I then tried to tell them I’m a member of the Nigerian army officers mess and they still said I am potential suspect and they are taking me to CID, they talked and talked that I have to put statement down and I’d be in the cell for the night, then we entered car and they loaded their vehicle and told me to start going, then I knew omo, it has be so, I called my dad and tried to talk to him, he now spoke to them and they asked for 200k and said they can’t do less, we kept going and stuff, they now said young boy like this with such car and omo they all gathered around me, entered my car and I was so scared cos they were rolling the guns too much around me� (hard guy in the potor potor) - my dad struck a compromise with them, they took me to POS, withdrew my money and left.

They now said, I’m a good boy and that I won’t sleep in station then cracked their dumb jokes and left. The experience is unmatched - ngl, but sha, I’m good, I just need to sleep or something cos I’ve not been this scared in years

In Peter Obi 's voice, other countries give laptops to their youths while Nigeria arrests youths that are carrying laptops.

These people no dey hear word, they keep on harassing people driving good cars or carrying laptops and good phones.

Can’t someone drive a good car bought from his salary or decent business without being tagged a yahoo boy/girl?

Matthew 5:25
'"Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court.
Do it while you are still together on the way, or your adversary may hand you over to the judge,
and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison'

For a pastor kid, with the 'japa', 'potor potor', 'omo' parlance, you sure talk like someone thats defo streetwise.

The apple doesnt fall far from the tree, as Daddy too, obviously, is aware of Matthew 5:25, (i.e. my dad struck a compromise with them, they took me to POS, withdrew my money and left) so I can see, where you got it from.

If you were clean your father won't negotiate with them rather he will come to the station with a lawyer.

It very easy to know fraudulent people they are always scared to there balls when they see policemen.

Na waa Ooo.
Ok naa..
..
MEANWHILE...
GO AND VERIFY.
..
Two men were governors: one in Lagos, the other in Anambra.
Towards the end of their second term, the one in Lagos sent his retirement bill and got his house of assembly to approve what you see below as his yearly pension.

1. 300% annual salary as severance package as approved by RMAFAC.
2. 100% of annual basic salary of incumbent gov as salary for LIFE even after leaving office.
3. Six new cars every 3 years
4. A new house in Lagos, minimum 5 bedroom
5. A new house in Abuja or any other location, minimum 5 bedroom.
6. Free medical care for him and members of his family for life.
7. Entitled to cooks, stewards, Gardners, and domestic staffs, all pensionable.
8. 300% of his annual basic salary as governor every 2 years as furniture allowance
9. 100% of annual basic salary as governor as his house maintenance allowance
10. Two DSS officers, 1 female officer for his wife and eight policemen to guard him.
11. 25% of his annual basic salary for personal assistants.
12. 30% of his annual basic salary for car maintenance .
13. 20% of his annual basic salary as utilities maintenance.
14. Pensionable drivers, no limits to the number.

(This is apart from what he gets as a percentage of collections from the firm - Alpha Beta - which collects tax for Lagos State, and the total control he has over the governors and the treasury.)
..
..
But See what Peter Obi collects from Anambra State since leaving office as governor:

1. No gratuity
2. No pensions
3. No houses
4. No cars
5. No allowances of any kind
6. No maintenances of any kind.
7. No personal assistants paid by the state.
8. No domestic staffs paid by the state.
9. No aids sponsored by the state.
10. Not even pure water.
11. No shishi from the State.

Now the two men want to be president.

So choose you today who means well for Nigeria and who will serve the people selflessly.

I am just exposing your mind to see the truth.
It is now your decision to make and convince others.
Use your reasoning..
Vote and support wisely….

It's crazy and insane that the government are the ones empowering the police to do all these despite the ENDSARS protests. Instead of checkmating the police they encouraged them the more.

Whenever l heard a news about how police use to harass people for owning a gadget in the south the thing baffles me until it happens to me yesterday in Warri. I was coming from Udu there is one bridge they used to mount road block and extort innocent people. In my bag, is my laptop. When they sight my bag they ask me to open the bag, which l did without saying a word. They see my laptop and said where is the receipt l shown them. May be they want to term me yahoo, they said we shall go station l Said lets go. They ask for bribe l said for what? Let them take me to the station . They ask me to go immediately.

Why are you ashamed to tell them what you do

Is what you do illegal

Why have you chosen not to be straightforward in your responses

We do forget no matter how we pretend to be smart in our responses, especially, with law enforcement officers, we robe ourselves the more.

I don't hide my true identity from Police officers ...I think he complicated things by not being straightforward.

If his father has a lawyer in his contact nko? They would have taken him to the station and force him to write an incriminating statement before the lawyer arrives. They might even plant drugs in his car and charge him for drug possession. Worse still, they could shoot him, plant a gun in his car and label him armed robber.

Something similar happened to me last week. My driver brushed an uber car and the car lost control to hit a traffic light close to Ajah. They took both cars to the police station and forced my driver to write a statement and then locked him up. Before my lawyer got there the following morning, there was nothing he could do as my driver had already written a statement incriminating himself and absolving the other driver. Obviously the uber company and the police in charge of the case are working together. The responsibility of fixing the traffic light which was damaged by the other car and the repairs of the other car is now my responsibility. If we go to court my drivers written and signed statement would be used against him.

The guys father did the wise thing. Even if he decides to call a lawyer, would the lawyer not collect money? Then he would pay for both police and then court bail apart form other inconveniences, which might be more than the 200k the police (criminals or kidnappers) are asking for.

The Nigerian state is completely broken and we are living in an Hobbesian society, where life is poor, nasty, brutish, and short.

Dear Mr. Samuel Arogbonlo,

You lied to the police that you worked in the church while in truth you are and engineer
You lied to the police that you are an army officer. That means you impersonated and army officer

Lying to the police is misdemeanor which is punishable with jail time

Impersonating an army officer is a criminal offence that can out you in jail for a long time
