“My friend and I went to visit another friend and on our way back, around Akuwonjo Egbeda , they ( SARS officers ) stopped us , asked us to come down from the Uber , searched our bags and found nothing asides money,” Tamaradenyefar alleged .
Continuing , she said , “Next thing he goes ‘Go and meet our Oga .’
“We were confused ; so , we asked , ‘meet the Oga ? Why ?’
“He said because we were dressed indecently and it’s against the law . We tried asking questions and the only thing they ordered us to do was to enter their van .”
