Protests: Police Release Detained AAC Guber Candidate, Five Others

The Police have released the guber candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in Ondo State, Kunle Wizeman Ajayi, and five others detained for participating in the  #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protests.

GWG.ng earlier reported that the Nigerian Police arrested Ajayi, Patrick Owolabi, and the other five who are members of the ‘Take It Back’ (TIB) movement, during the grand finale of the #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protest in Akure, Ondo State.

The TIB Movement had vehemently condemned the police actions, demanding the immediate and unconditional release of Ajayi and Owolabi.

In a post on Sunday night, a prominent member of the TIB movement, Omoleye Sowore, confirmed the release of Ajayi and five others.

However, he said that student activist, Patrick Owolabi, is yet to be released by the Nigerian police force. He demanded the immediate release of the student activist.

Sowore wrote, “Guber Candidate of AACparty Ondo State, Kunle Wizeman Ajayi @AjayiWizeman, and five others illegally detained in Ondo by Nigeria Police Force @PoliceNG for participating in #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria were released this evening. 

“However, @OndoPoliceNg is still illegally holding a student activist, Patrick Owolabi! Gov. @LuckyAiyedatiwa must order the Police to release Patrick immediately.”
