The operatives of the Nigerian Immigration Service have arrested Omoyele Sowore upon his arrival to Nigeria through the Lagos Airport.
Announcing his arrest, Nigerian Lawyer, Deji Adeyanju via his social media handle on Sunday revealed that he was arrested for organizing #endbadgovernance protest in Nigeria.
“SOWORE arrested by jobless and lawless Nigerian government for calling for End to Bad Governance protest.”
Sowore via his social media handles also announced his arrest, “DETAINED BY THE @NigerianImmigration, my International passport confiscated.
I had just arrived in Nigeria from the USA to the MMIA in Lagos; upon reaching Nigerian Immigration, my passport was seized, and they told me They had orders to detain me.
It is part of the broader clampdown by the fascist @officialAbat regime on dissent and their fear of the upcoming #FearlessINOctober. In case this becomes a prolonged and protracted detention, I urge our citizens to ensure ALL stop tyranny means portable and necessary, engaging in the planned series of direct actions slated for October 1st and beyond.
#EndBadGovernaceInNigerianow #RevolutionNow”
