According to Nwonwu, Agu is presently in custody of the Department of State Services (DSS).

“Chiwetalu Agu is still not free.
He is with DSS now. Colleagues say they are looking for a top lawyer to bail him,” Nwonwu wrote on his known Facebook page on Friday.

Recall that there were widespread reports on Friday that Agu had been released by the Nigerian Army, following his arrest on Thursday, for wearing Biafra regalia.

Agu was arrested in Onitsha, Anambra State. His manhandling and subsequent seizure was strongly condemned by majority of social media users. The army came out to say it arrested Agu for soliciting support for the proscribed separatist group, Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

A statement put out by the Director Army Public Relations, Brigadier General Onyema Nwachukwu had said: “Troops of Nigerian Army (NA) have arrested one Chiwetalu Agu while inciting members of the public and soliciting for support for the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

“Dressed in a very well known attire of the proscribed group, Chiwetalu Agu was picked up for questioning while inciting members of the public to join the proscribed group. Though he attempted puting up some resistance when troops made effort to take him into custody, he was not assaulted or subjected to brutalization.

“While the NA recognizes the inalienable rights of the citizenry to freedom of movement and expression as enshrined in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, it is apparently a violation for any individual or group to incite the public to cause mayhem or break down of law and order. It is therefore pertinent to state that while exercising such freedoms, it must be done within the confines of the law, bearing in mind the imperative for peace, and national security.”

But now, a top media practitioner has claimed the entertainer has still not regained freedom

I agree with you, instead of sit at home on mondays. Everybody should wear Biafran regalia and go about their businesses in solidarity with MNK.

I want mooslim terrorists and their slaves to gnash their teeth in pains.

IPOB DOS should give the command that a day in a week should be set aside to wear the Biafran regalia.
Instead of sit at home on mondays, come out with your Biafran attires and flags and move about in solidarity with MNK.

Let them arrest everybody in the East.

stanluiz:
Oga speak for your self and your fellow ipob bingos and Stop saying everyone in the east ? What kind of rubbish is this ?

No every Igbo man is an ipob member. Get that into your skull. Stop forcing that Ipob madness on innocent civilians in the east.

You and your family can lead by example by wearing biafra attire and be parading the public not by inciting people to wear biafra attire in the comfort of your bedroom.

Be rest assured his time will come and he will not escape!
As long as he is technically trying to be politically correct the DSS will use a long spoon with him.
The day is close when gumi who is a retired military officer will explain every nonsense he has been fishing out
