I get angry when I get to read of experiences lol this, it's painful, it's uncalled for and against our very own rights as citizens, but they don't freaking care!.. they're blinded by their own greed and stupidity.
Just Yesterday after going with my guy to go run a dance class in another university and on our way back we got pulled over by Anti-crime police or whatever they called themselves. They opted to search our bags(mind you if it were in places like Lagos they'll not be this calm and considerate), they searched our bags and found nothing fishy then asked to see our phones, I brought mine out and immediately they saw my guy was holding an iphone 7 they took us straight into their van for further scrutiny. They asked me to open my phone, I did and they searched rigorously through it but found nothing because I had hidden most of my apps so they couldn't see it. They were even shocked to see that they was nothing on my guy's phone for them to use to implicate us, so after almost 2hours of long talk they eventually let us go. We were very lucky.
I'm really sorry about what you had to go through my friend, it is painful and it's psychologically draining.
I hope you get back on your feet soon. Y
Thanks a million, I intend to brush it off and move on, the most traumatic for me was being paraded as a criminal and the dehumanization that ensued inside the police station. I can relate to your experience. Imagine asking a person to pay to bail themselves, when they've absolutely done nothing.
Hopefully one day we can all be rid of Nigeria, it's actually not habitable by any means.
