Court Clears Sowore To Proceed With #FreeNnamdiKanuNow Protest After Police Request Rejected

Wale busari03 mins

The Federal High Court in Abuja has rejected an application by the Nigeria Police Force seeking to stop the planned “Free Nnamdi Kanu Now” protest scheduled for Monday, October 20, 2025. The Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, had filed an ex parte motion through police lawyers to restrain activist and protest convener, Omoyele Sowore, from going ahead with the demonstration near the Presidential Villa in Abuja. However, Justice Umar declined to grant the police request, ruling that Sowore must first be served with a formal notice before any decision could be made. The judge subsequently adjourned the case until Tuesday for a full hearing. The ruling effectively allows the protest to proceed as planned on Monday, as there is currently no court order preventing it. Reacting to the decision, Sowore hailed the court’s refusal to halt the protest as a victory for democracy and free expression. “IGP Kayode Egbetokun dispatched police lawyers to sue me in an effort to stop the #FreeNnamdiKanuNow protest scheduled for Aso Rock Villa on Monday,” Sowore wrote on X. “But the judge refused to grant the motion and adjourned the case for proper hearing on Tuesday.” The protest, tagged #FreeNnamdiKanuNow, aims to demand the release of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, who has been in custody since 2021 despite multiple court rulings ordering his release. With the court’s ruling, Sowore and his supporters are expected to march toward the Presidential Villa as planned, setting the stage for a tense faceoff with security operatives. The final decision on the legality of the protest will be determined at the adjourned hearing on Tuesday.

Actor and skit maker Lege Miami has addressed why his clip was excluded from the video montage celebrating Seyi Tinubu’s 40th birthday. In a video shared online, the comedian, whose real name is Adams Kehinde, admitted that his inability to speak fluent English was the reason his footage didn’t make it into the final cut. “I caused it myself because I don’t speak good English,” Lege said. “If I spoke fluent English and packaged myself better, Seyi Tinubu would have added me among those rich, polished people.” He revealed that members of Seyi’s media team had visited his home to film his goodwill message but later left it out of the birthday documentary. “They came to my house, recorded my message, and I wished Seyi a happy birthday. But in the final video, my clip wasn’t there,” he explained. “Don’t blame Seyi; it’s not his fault. He’s my paddy and a good person.” Lege, who is known for his humorous takes on social media, urged fans to stop tagging him about the issue, insisting that Seyi Tinubu had no hand in the omission. “Please stop tagging me. It’s not Seyi’s fault. I’m the one who doesn’t speak good English, and that’s why my video wasn’t included,” he said. Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, celebrated his 40th birthday on October 13 with a grand event attended by top politicians, business moguls, and entertainers.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by ADAMS KEHINDE (@legemiamii)

They Are Baseless – Akpabio Rejects Sister-in-Law’s Murder Allegations

Wale busari04 mins

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has dismissed murder and betrayal claims made against him by his sister-in-law, Pastor Pat Akpabio, describing the allegations as unfounded and politically motivated. Through his spokesperson, Eseme Eyiboh, Akpabio urged Pat to report her claims to the appropriate security agencies instead of airing them on social media. “Killing is at the heart of our criminal justice administration. So, I expect a citizen who is aware of the commission of such a crime to be honest enough and report it to the authorities,” Eyiboh said, as quoted by PREMIUM TIMES. He added, “The issue of murder is not something to use for a political vendetta. The law is very clear: whoever asserts must prove.” Eyiboh also defended Akpabio’s character, describing him as “a very humble and strong family person,” and suggested that Pat’s allegations were motivated by a desire for attention. “She is just doing it for attention. Who is going to give her that attention? The Senate president is very busy,” Eyiboh said, adding that the accusations would not tarnish Akpabio’s reputation. Pat, married to Akpabio’s brother Ibanga, had in a Facebook video posted on October 11 accused the Senate president of being responsible for “many killings” in Akwa Ibom State during his tenure as governor. She also criticized him for neglecting his hometown, Ukana Ikot Ntuen, which she said has been without electricity for weeks. In addition, Pat claimed Akpabio accused her husband of wrongdoing during his failed 2019 senatorial bid and accused him of betraying several political allies, including Umana Okon Umana, Nsima Ekere, Akan Udofia, and Bassey Albert. She further vowed to challenge him in the 2027 senatorial election, issuing what she called a “quit notice”: “When you finish, go home. Take care of yourself.” Pat also warned President Bola Tinubu to exercise caution in his dealings with Akpabio and threatened to release more damaging information, stating, “You know I love you. I don’t hate you. I love you because you are a brother to my husband. I stood by you in 2019 when people wrote all sorts of things against you. Did I collect 10 kobo from you? Today, you have the audacity to say that you are the one that made me.” Before entering politics, Akpabio worked as a teacher, later as a lawyer at Paul Usoro & Co., and also served as managing director and CEO of EMIS Telecoms Limited.
