Nollywood actress Sarah Martins has raised alarm over an alleged assault by some uniformed men while she was preparing free meals for homeless people on the streets of Lagos.
The actress, who shared her ordeal on Instagram, said she was cooking for the less privileged when the officers believed to be members of the Kick Against Indiscipline (KAI) task force approached her.
According to her, the men harassed and bullied her before seizing her cooking gas, food items, and other materials she was using to make the meals.
She also showed a video of her injured hand, expressing pain over what she described as an unfair attack.
Sarah explained that she was only trying to serve love and kindness through free healthy meals for people in need, saying that cooking for the vulnerable had become her usual act of charity.
The actress called for justice and urged authorities to investigate the incident, stressing that her only intention was to care for the homeless and spread goodwill in the community.
She wrote: “My heart aches. Today, as I was cooking free food for the vulnerable and homeless people on the streets of Lagos, like I always do, some uniformed men came there, harassed me, bullied me and took away the food I was cooking, took away my cooking gas and everything I was making free food with. My only offence was serving love on a plate through my healthy meals. I am not a chef, and I do not cook for a living. My heart aches”.
