Police intensify clampdown on opposition party - AAC members shot & arrested in Lagos

More TakeItBack and AAC members were arrested this morning at a peaceful protest to demand the release of 6 members who were arrested yesterday for pasting posters.

The Take it Back Movement and AAC party is still trying to account for its members that embarked on a peaceful protest this morning.

Witnesses at the scene reported being shot at and tear gassed, with many of them sustaining injuries.

At least one vehicle has been impounded complete with a mounted sound system for campaign purposes.

Sahara Reporters, on hand to cover the peaceful protest, report that ten members have been arrested – including some of their own staff.

The protest is in response to 6 TakeItBack supporters who were arrested during the early hours of yesterday, Sunday 10th December, following cooked up charges of damaging and defacing posters belonging to other parties. The order to disrupt the peaceful awareness exercise being carried out by members of Sowore’s party, the AAC, is believed to have come from Imohimi Edgar, the Lagos State Commissioner of Police.
