I am in love with this young Nigerian youth who reminded the police why the #EndSARS protest was so very needed. He refused to be harassed or extorted and stood for his rights till people came pic.twitter.com/e3skPXceFp
The security agents went ahead to block his way with a wooden table, while he was in traffic.
While other passersby did nothing to help, the man stood his ground as the policeman in mufti grabbed his trousers.
There was another man brave enough to lend his voice in the video as he shouted, “They wanted to extort him. He refused to be extorted. He didn’t do anything. He was in traffic and they stopped him. He did nothing.”

I hear bystanders got involved and were able to get the young man to drive away with his car. The policemen were probably in shock at the number of young men and ladies who challenged them

They initially tried to chase him on foot & later tried to commandeer a keke. All failed!
The people followed them, acting as a guards for the guy's car.

The shameless police who were already being booed by everyone on both sides of the road just had to retreat. The guy left with his car "safely"
