Police Assault and Humiliate Naija Comedian Shakara In Front Of His Family

Comedian Shakara was beaten, assaulted and arrested
from his house in Warri in the presence of his wife and
other family members by policemen.
The guy suffered more humiliation as he was
transported to Lagos in his boxer shorts. For a crime
he did not commit. Rather, he went through the
embarrassment just because he shared a similar
phone number with a wanted criminal.
Veteran comedian Alibaba shared the story online;
"The committee is sitting now at the National
Assembly in the case of Shakara, an Mc and
comedian who was assaulted, beaten and
arrested from his house in Warri in the presence
of his wife, his co tenants, his father and his
friends, for an alleged crime, and brought all
the way to Lagos by Road like a common thief,
in his boxers.
Only for the police to realize it was a case of
mistaken identity. The phone number of the
person they were looking for had a digit
different from his . The police had contacted the
Network provider with the phone number, the
network then gave them his address, to enable
them track the suspect. Isn’t that the problem
with our agencies? Lack of proper and thorough
investigation. Now na beg them dey beg... one
small thing them for don shoot the innocent
boy leg...
Meanwhile the story in Warri is that he was
arrested for armed robbery and kidnapping. Who
wan call am for work again?”
