A Federal High Court sitting in Lagos has ordered the Federal Government, the Department of State Services (DSS) and the Inspector General of police toexplain why Omoyele Sowore and all other persons arrested and detained in connection with the peaceful protest held on August 5, 2019 should not be unconditionally released.

The court also ordered the DSS and the IGP to appear before it on the next adjourned date of September 4, 2019.

Justice Nicholas Oweibo made the order while ruling on an exparte application brought by a Lagos lawyer, Olukoya Ogungbeje in a suit challenging the FG, DSS, IGP and the AGF on his right to peaceful protest, assembly and association.

Ogungbeje, who filed the suit on behalf of himself and others who participated in the #Revolutionnow protest asked the court to also declare as unconstitutional and illegal, the police clampdown of the protesters and the arrest of Sowore by the DSS.

He also asked the court to make an order for the immediate and unconditional release of those arrested and detained.

But instead of ordering the release of those detained, justice Oweibo granted Ogungbeje leave to serve the DSS and the IGP so he could hear from them on the next adjourned date especially on why Sowore and others should not be immediately released.

The young ones amongst us may never know what real democracy looks like in western world compare to what we have in Nigeria.

This is Tyranny. Maximum Rule. Regimented overlords
Pure dictatorship like Abacha, Idi-Amin and BuhariApC.

You are just right. You would not understand because you are till young and tender. I wish you have grown and mature perhaps you would had understood that sowere approach and choice of words were rather reckless.

Please highlight Sowore's words that were reckless.

I still don't know why people believe in court under buhari.

APC, DSS, EFCC, BUHARI and all APC members not poor nairalander are all above law.

Yet the dead meat Barbecue seller is already talking shit here

1. Iya Onifufu is a 70-year-old, poor Nigerian living in a bed – less room with a leaking roof, hawking fufu from early in the morning, through the scorching sun to the evening to barely survive with her unemployed graduate children.

According to Iya Onifufu, while she was hawking around, she saw and heard some protesters of ‘Revolution Now’ protesting peacefully and saying things were bad in Nigeria, campaigning for a better life from government.

Illiterate she is, but the protesters’ message resonated in her. It was like the message was exactly for her because of her poverty status.

What did she do?

She cut short her hawking, dropped her basket and joined the protesters to demand good governance while some of us, especially the ‘spontaneous revolutionaries’ activists and social media bullies were platitudinal with the ‘Revolution’, condemning the messengers and the message without giving any concrete way forward.

Iya Onifufu willingly joined the ‘Revolutionary Now’ protesters on the streets singing ‘Ilu Ile’ (country hard) with them peacefully as many of us secondary school students joined ‘Ali Must Go’ protesters on the streets in 1978 even when we didn’t know the planners but the message of the university students against education commercialization was vital to us as future university students whose ambition might be jeopardized if Gen. Obasanjo’s attack on education succeeded.

Pronto, during the peaceful protest, before you can say: ‘FUFU’, fully-armed battle-ready policemen descended heavily on Iya Onifufu, terrorized, pushed her, tear-gassed and threatened to kill the 70-year-old woman and her comrades if they refused to leave the scene.

The same security personnel that belonged to the ‘original suffer head’ class like Iya Onifufu and other protesters terrorized them to no end before our very eyes and the civilized world.

What was your response to the unnecessary police brutality against a harmless old woman?

You kept morbid and unprincipled silence. Some even shamelessly supported the attack because the poor woman associated with the word Revolution, while some ‘ acti -feasts’ were perhaps waiting for the position of their paymasters before they could take a position against police brutality.

But today, Iya Onifufu has become a hero and an inspiration to a struggle for better Nigeria.

I’m not a sowore supporter, and I will never be one in this life. But what reckless approach are you talking about?



Sowore and the others never said Dogs & Baboons will be sucked in blood like Buhari. Neither have they said they will form parallel government like Amaechi threatened under GEJ. So what reckless approach are you talking about?

Buhari the tyrannical terrorist will surely not escape judgement in the fullness of time.

The double standard of APC’s government is gravely troubling!! Were these not the same people who were protesting up and down couple of years ago?

People who threatened to form a parallel government and swore to make the baboon and gorilla soak in blood?

But instead of ordering the release of those detained, justice Oweibo granted Ogungbeje leave to serve the DSS and the IGP so he could hear from them on the next adjourned date especially on why Sowore and others should not be immediately released

Sowore don buy market wey him no fit pay.
All because he wasn't given a Ministerial appointment.
He should rest a little more in detention biko.

Is it not the same court that ordered for his detention for 45 days or I am wrong, someone should correct me

Local man is confused like my local brother the above commenter
Wasn't it the same court that gave the DSS permission to hold him for 45 days

Who tell court sey Dey have anything to explain

The only hope of the common man is the judiciary.
When the judiciary is manipulated by the power that be, then the hope of the common man is in shambles.
It broke my heart hearing the court asking for explanation from our oppressors.
I feel like my father just interfere to help his helpless son.
I wish, there will be a Nigeria were the judiciary won't be biased in standing between the helpless citizens and the government.

Is court not the Federal Government?



Is the Federal Government not the court?



Who is fooling who?

Buhari na scam, if Buhari could protest against Jonathan in 2014, and detained a fellow countryman 5years later for doing same then he is a clown

Nigeria judiciary is a joke. A court grants an order to detain him and here is another court of coordinates jurisdiction asking for why he was detained.

Hmm
