Human rights activist and publisher, Omoyele Sowore, has been released from police custody.
Sowore confirmed his release on a post on his X handle on Friday.
Announcing his release in a post on X, Sowore accused the Nigeria Police Force and the Inspector General of Police (IGP) of unlawful conduct, while expressing gratitude to supporters who stood by him during his detention.
He, however, said that his freedom was “nothing to celebrate” as the struggle for justice continues.
“The Nigeria Police Force and its illegal IGP have capitulated to the demands of the revolutionary movement. I have been released from unjust, unwarranted, and unlawful detention.
“However, it is nothing to celebrate, work tongues, but I can’t do without thanking you all for not giving up. You’ve all seen the power of unity #RevolutionNow,” he stated.
