Abuja, Nigeria – E be like say wahala dey come, as human rights activist Omoyele Sowore don light fire for the #FreeNnamdiKanuNow protest wey dey happen tomorrow, October 20, 2025. Sowore don urge the FCT police chief and im officers say make dem no forget dem constitutional duty to protect citizens and respect dem right to gather in peace.
Dis message fit come from Sowore because he sabi wetin dey go down. He come drop for him X account say even though illegal Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun don japa go America for conference, him don still send instruction make dem use heavy hand against peaceful protest. Na wetin we go fit call wahala, abi? (The audacity!)
Sowore go dey like the voice wey shout for the wilderness, as him dey call out CP Miller Dantawaye say make e uphold him oath. ‘We dey call on CP Dantawaye and every officer of the Nigeria Police Force @policeng to protect citizens, and respect the inalienable right to peaceful assembly,’ him talk.
Him no stop there, oh! Him still dey warn say any form of excessive force or unlawful arrest go get serious consequences. ‘Any use of excessive force or unlawful arrests will attract repercussions,’ Sowore dey shout. Na true talk o! (People go surely hold dem accountable!)
As the planned protest dey near, thousands of Nigerians dey align with Sowore to free the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, wey dey suffer inside DSS custody since dem carry am come Nigeria from Kenya for June 2021. People no go fit sleep well until Kanu come out, no be so? (This matter dey hot!)
We no fit forget say Sowore don dey mobilise support for this protest since October 13, and he don challenge political leaders from the South-East to join am for the peaceful march to the Presidential Villa, wey dem sabi as Aso Rock — no be small koko.
Sowore no dey play as he dey call oga dem from the South-East like Chukwuma Soludo, Enyinnaya Abaribe, Alex Otti, and even Peter Obi, say make dem carry body join the protest. This one be serious matter for dem, because dem dey pursue justice and an end to the wahala wey don follow Nnamdi Kanu.
