The recent out cry by young people over the over bearing intrusion and sometimes outright brutality of members of the Special Anti-robbery Squad (SARS) has seemingly fallen on deaf ears. However, if any change is to be realized, the advocacy against such high-handedness must be sustained.
With Vector speaking out very strongly against the modus operandi of the SARS operations, there is a possibility that this advocacy is fast approaching the tipping point. Being the son of a former senior police officer, and having lived in the barracks for several years, Vector is well aware of the psychology of the average policeman and their motivation. Hence, he speaks with deep insights on the various short failings of the average police man.
Vector believes, as rhymed in his new song, that it is a flagrant disregard of human rights when young people are thrown into police cells because of how they dress or how they look and not because they committed a crime. He promised to step up the campaign until such a time where the average Nigerian will have his or her rights protected by law.
