Police Don Arraign Sowore for Court, Protesters Dey Shout Release!

E be like say wahala don jam wahala for Federal High Court for Abuja as di mata wey concern Omoyele Sowore don turn kata kata for court arena.

You see, Sowore wey be correct activist and publisher of Sahara Reporters no dey ever carry last when e come to tok wetin dey hin mind about government palava.

But dis time, e get as e be because for dis wahala e don make Nigerian police vex no be small.

Di whole wahala start when Sowore begin drag Inspector General of Police (IGP) Kayode Egbetokun , dey call am “Illegal IGP” because hin tenure waka pass di retirement age wey di law talk.

Sowore no even gree at all, as hin go social media dey fire shots anyhow, dey yan say di extension of Egbetokun job no follow law.

As if dat one no do, di thing wey scatter everywhere na when Sowore put mouth for di case of Olamide Thomas, one nurse wey dem carry go detain for allegedly yab President Bola Tinubu pikin, Seyi, plus Egbetokun and di Force spokesman, Muyiwa Adejobi, for social media.

Sowore no waste time, as e para say make dem free di woman sharply. Hin even come drop one tweet wey resemble firewood for dry bush, e tok say, “Di illegal IG of Nigeria Police Force, Kayode Egbetokun go soon cause another #ENDSARS!

E just be matter of time! #EgbetokunMustGo #Revolution freeolamidenow.” Na so everywhere catch fire!

As e be say Sowore no dey carry last, di police kuku decide say dem go show am say na dem hold power. Dem send letter on top letter, dey invite am for questioning.

Di letter wey Commissioner of Police, Ibitoye Rufus Alajide, sign on behalf of Deputy Inspector General of Police, talk say Sowore don commit different wahala like resisting arrest, disobedience to lawful order, cyberstalking, and di one wey funny pass – refusal to assist public servant.

You go think say na drama script dem write, but na real life we dey so.

Police no even send say dem dey invite Sowore for peaceful talk, dem don already get plan to use style hold am for Abuja before dem go transfer am go Lagos, come give am bail condition wey go be like say dem dey keep person for life imprisonment.

Egbetokun don vex sotey hin dey find way to show Sowore pepper because of di “Illegal IGP” wey e call am.

Come see as di matter burst for Federal High Court for Abuja on January 29, 2025. Na so Sowore carry hin body enter court, but di drama wey happen outside court pass wetin dey inside courtroom.

Protesters full everywhere dey shout, dey carry placards dey para for Sowore release. You go think say na concert wey dem dey do because di whole place be like say e go turn riot any moment.

Police sef no carry last, as dem full ground like say na war zone. But even with all di uniform wey dem wear, di protesters no gree fear, dem stand gidigba dey ask why Sowore go dey face wahala for just talk wey e talk.

Inside court, di matter get as e be. Lawyers dey argue, supporters dey shout, and journalists dey use style record everything wey dey happen.

Human rights organizations no gree gree at all as dem begin tok say di case wey dem put for Sowore head too much.

Di National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) tok say make police no dey use force anyhow because law dey.

Di Executive Secretary, Barr. Tony Ojukwu, even talk say, “Law enforcement officers need to dey obey di same law wey dem dey enforce.”

International human rights groups sef no keep quiet. Amnesty International yarn say e be like say Nigerian government don dey use arrest and intimidation as their new hobby.

Dem warn say di thing wey happen to Sowore fit make Nigeria lose respect for international level. Na so dem dey talk di matter dey drag left and right.

But if you sabi Sowore well, you go know say dis no be hin first time wey government dey chase am up and down.

Back for 2019, dem arrest am on top treasonable felony case because hin organize di #RevolutionNow protest. Dat time sef, di whole world vex sotey dem shout until dem release am.

Again for 2024, Sowore still show say hin no dey fear as hin go support young Nigerians wey dey face trial for protesting against bad governance.

Na dis kind wahala make plenty Nigerians begin dey ask whether democracy still dey for di country. Because how e be say anytime wey person criticize government, na so dem go just carry am go court like say e thief goat?

Nigerians don dey look di whole situation like one big movie, but di only problem be say no be fiction, na real life tori!

Di government on di other hand dey try justify dia action. Dem say Sowore too dey make noise, say e wan cause wahala for di country. But many people believe say na just one of di many ways wey government dey try take shut up anybody wey no dey support dem.

Nigerians don wise up, dem don sabi say dis kind arrest and intimidation na old format wey don cast.

E be like say di tori never finish! Keep your biscuit near, because di way dis tori dey go, another chapter fit open soon!
