Breaking: Sowore Arrested At Lagos Airport

The Presidential Candidate of the African Action Congress, Omoyele Sowore, has been arrested.

According to reports, Sowore was arrested by operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) at the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Lagos, on his arrival from the United States.

Osun Defender gathered that the arrest may not be unconnected to calls by the publisher of Sahara Reporters for a nationwide protest due to the economic situation of the country by October 1st.

Sowore posted on his verified X handle. “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.

“This is not un expected because i have always known that It is part of the broader clampdown by the fascist @officialAbat regime on dissent and their fear of the upcoming #FearlessINOctober revolt.

“In case this becomes another prolonged and protracted detention, I urge our citizens to ensure they ALL stop tyranny by all means acceptable and necessary, by engaging in the planned series of direct actions slated for October 1st and beyond.”
