RE: All you need to know about unlawful arrest (The situation with SARS in Nigeria)

These are the very laws and rights that all citizens are supposed to be guided by. Sadly though, these laws never seem to be followed or adhered to by the law enforcements agents.
Nice write up @buterdaniel

Sort:  

That is exactly the bane of our society, the multiplicity of laws and regulations without any adequate structures to enforce these rules. It is quite sad as you stated.

However, it does not stop those whose duties it is to remind the public of their rights and entitlement. Information is power, in due time, these persons would understand this and seek the enforcement of their rights.

This is a good wokr @buterdaniel. Well done.

The second paragraph of your comment sums it all up. We owe a duty to inform people on their basic rights. Ignorance of the law of course is no excuse.

Thanks for being awesome @gunneresq

Very true @rickie , our countries are replete with good laws but the mechanisms to enforce these laws are epileptic. I really appreciate your contributions on the post.

Remain awesome!
