Naira Marley, who had earlier declined participation in any protest over fear of going to prison, announced on Twitter on Monday that some SARS officials would join his protest.
According to him, some SARS personnel and Nigerian Military officers would come out to show support against the bad eggs among their fellow colleagues and answer questions from Nigerians.
He tweeted: “On Tuesday we got some SARS personnels coming out with us. The ones that claim to only come out for big operations and not the dirty works on road.

“They are coming out to show support and to answer some questions, we also got some police officers and soldiers joining the protest.”
He, however, urged his fans and those willing to protest not to fight with any SARS personnel during the protest.
“Don’t forget guys just in case you see any SARS or any forces there on Tuesday don’t start any fight.
“We are allowed to ask questions? But remember no fight, no vandalism. Peaceful protest. Thanks,” he concluded.
