*******************

"Hello everybody, the Sarz you don't want to end is here again. Something just happened right now. I got stopped by SARS So I was driving alone and a Toyota Sienna with 6 heavily armed men pulled up in front of me... 3 of them came down and told me to park!! They asked for my license. Luckily for me I forgot it.

They entered the car and told me to just drive. I drove...They asked for my ID card and I told them I don't have an ID one of them said "we go show you something."

Since I didn't have my license, I didn't want to be aggressive with my rights so I switched profiles to "your friendly neighborhood guyman". At this point one of them took my phone and was searching it then he asked where I work.

I told him I'm a popular music producer. and I work for myself. He said "Na by popular!?!? We de go station we will impound this car " (I'm still driving off course btw). Finally one of them said "e be like say I don see your face true true for television...Wetin be your name."

I said Sarz on the beat and one of them hit me lightly on my shoulder and said " So na you be the fake Sars " it was all smiles for here . they said we are all doing the same work and I should find something for them cos the sun was hot.....I have them some change.

They said next time make sure you carry your license and I should greet starboy. I said ok no p."
