Nollywood actress Sarah Martins has raised serious concerns after claiming she was assaulted by uniformed officers during a charity outreach in Lagos. The actress, known for her lively personality and humanitarian efforts, took to social media to share her painful experience, saying her only offense was “serving love on a plate.”
Sarah explained that she had organized an outreach to provide free meals to homeless people when the incident occurred. According to her, a group of uniformed men believed to be officials of the Kick Against Indiscipline (KAI) stormed the location, disrupted the event, and allegedly assaulted her. She also claimed they confiscated her cooking gas, utensils, and other materials she brought for the program.
The actress, visibly emotional, posted a video of her bruised hand, stating that she never expected such an experience for doing something kind. In her words, “My only offense was serving love on a plate. I wanted to feed the needy, but I was bullied and harassed instead.” Her post quickly went viral, drawing massive attention from fans, celebrities, and Nigerians online who expressed their anger and disappointment over the alleged incident.
Many social media users praised Sarah Martins for her courage and kindness, while also calling for an investigation into the actions of the officers involved. Some described the situation as heartbreaking, stressing that charity work should be supported, not punished.
Sarah has vowed to continue her outreach despite the setback, stating that she would not be silenced by fear or intimidation. Her statement has sparked a wider conversation about how humanitarian efforts are handled in Nigeria and the need for better protection for those trying to help others.
