Nigerian politicians and human rights activist, Omoyele Sowore has been arrested and detained at the Nigerian Immigration, Lagos on his return to the country.
In a trending statement, Sowore said his International passport has been confiscated.
His statement read: "I had just arrived in Nigeria from the USA to the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, MMIA, in Lagos. Upon reaching Nigerian Immigration, my passport was seized, and they told me they had orders to detain me.
This is not unexpected 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."
