What's more, I imagine that is the means by which everybody is feeling at this moment. 

"They have been transforming the police for quite a while and we have never observed real activity. They reported that SARS had been disbanded in 2017, 2018, 2019 and now 2020. 

"They simply think we are moronic. It is obtuse." 

'I am not scared of passing on' 

At the point when Amanpour inquired as to whether he wasn't terrified, the same number of youngsters would not show up on camera, Falz said he was not apprehensive for his life, as the Nigerian circumstance has made demise a typical event. 

Falz told Amanpour: "I am not apprehensive for my life since where we are at this moment, I sense that I can without much of a stretch pass on by whatever else in any case. 

"We have a non-existent medical care framework, for instance. We have a genuinely significant level of destitution; there is joblessness. 

"We are in a basic state due to the degree of debasement and blunder of assets that we keep on observing consistently. 

"I can have a mishap on my approach to work and kick the bucket on the grounds that the condition of medical services is not a big deal. Individuals need to head out abroad to have appropriate medical care. 

"We continue saying that each and every Nigerian is one disorder away from dying. 

"So what sort of everyday routine am I experiencing any way? For what reason would it be advisable for me to fear kicking the bucket? I will kick the bucket in any case, so what is the point?" Falz asked Amanpour.
