“I just learned that illegal IGP Kayode Egbetokun has sent Nnamdi Kanu’s brother, and lawyer, Aloy Ejimakor, and 10 others all the way to Kuje Magistrate Court to get them remanded in prison at all costs,” he wrote on Facebook
Sowore stated, “The despicable and illegal Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, has ordered the arrest and detention of 13 peaceful protesters who participated in today’s #FreeNnamdiKanuNow demonstration in Abuja.
“Among those detained are Nnamdi Kanu’s lead lawyer, @AloyEjimakor, @NNAMDIKANU’S brother Fineboy Kanu, Barrister Okere, and ten others whose only “crime” was exercising their constitutional right to peaceful protest.
“Shockingly, the protesters have been taken to the notorious SARS Abattoir detention and torture facility in Abuja, a place long associated with human rights abuses, unlawful detentions, and unspeakable cruelty.
“Their offence was standing for justice and freedom and protesting peacefully,” He added.
