“On my life, I hate the police so much! I was out to get drinks for my friend’s birthday last night and these people popped out of nowhere and arrested us. I repeatedly asked what my offence was, they didn’t answer. I was harassed and dragged into a yellow bus and also tased. I put the tweet out inside the bus and immediately after they forcefully collected my phone and took us to Area F. We got there and we were asked to pay 500k, lol. I refused. And they were threatening to lock me up. Luckily one of my friends had seen my tweet and had come to bail me they collected 84k in cash from him and I transferred 16k. Before we were released. Till this moment, I don’t know what my offence was, but the Nigerian police harassed me, tased me, extorted me of 100k!” [sic]
