* Condemns The Invasion And Sealing Off The Office Of Sahara Reporters By Nigeria Police

Femi Falana, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and the National Chairman, Peoples Alternative Front has condemned in stronger terms the Nigeria Police Force for invading the secretariat of the Committee of the Defence of Human Rights and sealing off the office of Sahara Reporters in Lagos.

The learned silk laments that in spite of the fundamental rights of the Nigerian people to freedom of assembly and freedom of expression the Police had wanted to disrupt and stop the peaceful meeting of law-abiding citizens to discuss the illegal detention of Omoyele Sowore, Agba Jalingo, Abayomi Olawale and scores of others being incarcerated in various detention facilities in the country.

He further lamented that the DSS has detained Sowore for 47 days contrary to the order of the federal high court that he be detained for 45 days even when the court refused their application for the renewal of its order for the detention of Messrs Agba Jalingo and Ekanem Ekpo for 14 days.

In spite of the expiration of the detention order of the two journalists, they are being held by the Police in Cross River.

Mr. Abayomi Olawale who was arrested on August 5, 2019 has been detained for 45 days by the State Security Service without any court order whatsoever. These detainees and scores of others languishing in illegal custody ought to be released forthwith.

“While congratulating the organisers of the symposium for successfully holding the programme at another venue the harassment of law-abiding citizens cannot be tolerated under a regime that is busy negotiating with bandits and terrorists, bribing them with public funds and granting them amnesty.” He said..
