Human rights activist, Omoyele Sowore, on Wednesday stormed the Nigeria Police Force Headquarters with a travel bag containing soap and other items following a summons from the Inspector General of Police Monitoring Unit.
SOCIETY REPORTERS reports that the Nigeria police had in a letter dated August 5, invited the activist and politician for questioning following a petition on alleged forgery and criminal defamation.
Sowore on Tuesday vowed to honour the summons “with a full house”, calling on all “revolutionary comrades, citizens of conscience, voices of resistance” to join him.
At about 12:16 p.m., Sowore arrived at the facility accompanied by his lawyers, A.K. Musa and Marshal Abubakar, along with a crowd of supporters chanting anti-government and anti-Kayode Egbetokun songs.
His visibly packed travel bag contained personal essentials, including toothpaste, toothbrush, soap, clothing, books, and other items, a symbolic gesture suggesting he was prepared for possible detention.
