Sowore Released After Lagos Airport Detention By Nigerian Authorities Over #EndBadGovernance Protests

The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) detaining the #RevolutionNow convener, Omoyele Sowore, at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos, has released the activist.

“I have just been released. My passport and everything have been returned to me,” Sowore told his online newspaper, SaharaReporters. 

Following Sowore’s detention on arrival from the U.S. by the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) at the airport over a watchlist of the Department of State Service (DSS), it seized his passport and contacted the DSS.

It held the activist while it contacted the DSS and awaited ‘an order from above.’
