Sowore: Immigration seized my passport, detained me at Lagos airport

Omoyele Sowore, convener of #RevolutionNow protest, says he was detained by the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos, upon his arrival from the United States.

His website, Sahara Reporters, previously reported that he was detained by the Department of State Services (DSS) — a report many media outlets, including TheCable, picked up.

The Take-It-Back Movement — also convened by Sowore — is currently planning another protest billed for October 1.

In a post via his social media page, Sowore said his passport was also seized by the NIS.

“I had just arrived in Nigeria from the USA to the MMIA in Lagos; upon reaching Nigerian Immigration, my passport was seized, and they told me they had orders to detain me,” he wrote.

“This is not un expected because I have always known that It is part of the broader clampdown by the fascist Bola Ahmed Tinubu 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.”,” he wrote.
