Yomi SARS Reveals How #EndSARS Campaign Affected His Music Career

Nigerian singer, Yomi SARS, who also doubles as a SARS operative, has revealed that the campaign to end the Special Anti-Robbery Squad in Nigeria, popularly tagged #ENDSARS campaign, affected his music.

The singer and policeman, with real name Abayomi Ekundayo, told The Punch during a chat that at a time, he was enjoying good following in the music industry, but it later became a struggle for him (to shine).

His words: “I was one of the originators of the shaku shaku dance. The dance style became popular last year, which was the season I released my hit song, Adoyoyo. Songs such as Legbegbe, Shepeteri and Egewere were also newly released at the time. While the other songs went on to enjoy more attention, it was not the same for me. Things became worse and the public’s attention shifted from me.”

“Since the campaign to scrap SARS has ended, people have been embracing my music more. By the time my new mixtape circulates well, I am certain that more people will get to appreciate my talent.

“I was supposed to perform at Olamide’s concert last year but I couldn’t because of the tension. It was a serious national issue at the time and people saw me as one of the SARS officials even though I had left the unit many years ago.”

“Trust me, I always look out for celebrities whenever they have issues. If you call me at 2am, I will pick the phone because I’m a light sleeper. If I can’t solve the case myself and I am certain you are innocent, I will meet with my bosses for help. I have always wanted to bring the police closer to the people.”
