Activist Accuses Sowore Of Pocketing #endsars Grant by sammy329(m): 7:52pm On Apr 13, 2021
…I never applied for or received any grant in her name, says #RevolutionNow convener
An activist, Oluwatosin Adeniji, has accused Sahara Reporters Publisher, Omoyele Sowore, of pocketing an #EndSARS grant which she claimed Sowore applied for on her behalf in 2020.

Adeniji, a known associate of Sowore and a member of his #RevolutionNow movement, said while she was in police custody last November, the online publisher applied for the grant in her name, without her knowledge.

The PUNCH had reported that Adeniji and five others were arrested in front of the National Assembly complex, Abuja, last November for staging an #EndSARS protest. They were charged for unlawful assembly, amongst others, remanded in prison but later released on bail.

Narrating her ordeal on Tuesday, Adeniji, who tweeted via @callmerahila, said Sowore and his lawyer, Tope Akinyode, applied for a grant in her name but the funds were not released to her.

She wrote, “@YeleSowore, it’s sad that you of all people could take advantage of my predicament. I went to prison last year November over #EndSARS but you decided to apply for a grant in my name without informing me, before, during, and after the application was made.

“Fast forward to January, I found out that a grant was applied for in my name but since you @YeleSowore was in detention I had to ask your lawyer @TopeAkinyod because I found out that he was the lawyer involved in the process.

“First, you admitted that a grant was applied for in my name through the late Innocent Chukwuma but you are not sure he submitted the application till his death. You also raised concerns that it is possible that the late Innocent submitted the application and someone went behind your back to get the funds. This sounds absolutely unbelievable, especially coming from a man of your kind who would cross seven seas to unravel a mystery.
