Today i visited Kirikiri medium prison to see two #EndSARS comrades, who the world has forgotten.
Dare Williams (25) & Bethel Chukwuocha (22) both students of Federal college of education Akoka.
They were arrested on the 22nd of Dec 2020.
They were arrested by Sabo Police station after #EndSARS protest. Tortured, framed as car snatchers, forced at gun point to accept police written statement, transferred to SARS, Police command Ikeja, paraded before journalists, moved to Panti, taken to court, & later to prison.
They are in a pitiable condition right now, & their story brought tears to my eyes. 😭😭
Efforts to get them out, has proved abortive, even when the police & the prosecutors have nothing against them.
I call on Nigerians to help these young men, as they are dying gradually there.
I will be putting out the full and complete details of their case much later. Like i have always been shouting, We have lots of innocent #EndSARS comrades, scattered in different prisons, all across Nigeria.
It is not easy to survive in Nigerian prison, even if it is just a day.
Their next court date is November 2nd. They are before Justice shonaike, at the Lagos Court TBS.
Court 37.
They are currently being represented by Barrister Emmanuel Omajali.
Since 2020, they have appeared in court, 8 times with no headway.

A woman wanted to scam her rich husband. So she planned with her sideman, to arrange for her kidnap, when her husband travelled abroad.
She travelled to another state, lodged in a hotel with her sideman, and he contacted her husband's best friend, pretending to be a kidnapper.
He threatened to gang-rape the woman alongside his members, & also kill her, if the sum of 300 million is not paid.
The husband's best friend contacted him with the sad news, and the man was broken & devastated. He asked his best friend to do whatever he can to get his wife out.
His friend started negotiating with the kidnappers as instructed by the man, and he kept the story away from the police and the public, as also instructed by the man. Because of the man's status in the society, and also not to endanger his wife's life.
At a recent APC secret meeting, some big wigs of the party & Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu's men, came to a conclusion that Peter Obi & the Obidient movement has taken over the social media space in Nigeria, & now controls the 2023 election narrative.
A grave mistake they admitted to have made from the unset, and they now regret.
They underrated Peter Obi, & the Obidient movement when it all started, few months ago.
Now all efforts at trying to slow down the group, infiltrate or discredit the movement has proved abortive.
They tried to financially induce some of the major players of the Obidient movement, both online & offline, it didn't work.
They tried to discredit the LP presidential candidate, & some major social media influencers, crusading his campaign with propaganda & fake news, no way.
