If not for being easily recognisable, Mavin records artiste, Reekado Banks could have been easily manhandled by members of the Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS).

This was the impression given by the singer who took to his twitter account narrate his brief encounter with the police command special unit. According to him, he was driving with some colleagues before his car was suddenly double-crossed by an unmarked car which happened to be SARS operatives and they only left him when they recognised his face.
This is coming barely over a month after his Label mate Dr Sid was harassed by SARS officials while the singer was driving along the popular Lekki-Epe expressway. The officers seized his phone and almost physically assaulted him, but for the intervention of the same Reekado Banks, and comedian Basketmouth.
See his tweet below:
I don’t even know the difference btw SARZ and ARMED ROBBERS! The ones I met today over took in a regular car, No uniforms, immediately pointed their guns and asked that we came down from the car, then calmed down when they noticed me. Biko what if I wasn’t me ??? 😩😩
