Reality TV star, Jeff Nweke has shared a very disturbing video of the moment officers of the Nigeria Police Force attacked him and other protesters in Abuja.
While sharing the video, Jeff said:
“I have never been more afraid of losing my life than today. And by who ? The Nigeria Police,” said the reality TV star, who joined many others calling for the end of the controversial arm of the Nigeria Police Force, Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), which has been accused of being a menace to Nigerians.”
He continued:
“I’m still in shock, we came out to protest in peace and when we stopped and knelt down they began shooting tear-gas canisters at us and advanced continuously towards us with their huge trucks, beating some of us and screaming, “KILL THEM, KILL THEM”!!!”
He added:
“I managed to get myself to a friend’s car and when the lead police truck spotted me trying to get in, he rammed into the car intentionally.”
