Law, '19 Report says Nigerians @ gunpoints paid over N306b at an estimated 600 military & 6,300 @PoliceNG roadblocks across SS & SE (August 2015-Oct. 2019).

2/ Illegally incarcerating the hapless and aggrieved Nigerian youths who embarked on the #August5thProtest, beyond 24-48 hours, runs afoul of Section 35 of Nigeria's 1999 Constitution, which guarantees Right to Personal Liberty.
3/ Section 35 (5) provides that an accused person who has been arrested on the allegation of having committed an offence must be charged to court within 24 hours where a court of competent jurisdiction is located within a radius of forty kilometers from the police station.
