Happy to report that after a 7-day ultimatum given to the lawless Muhammadu Buhari regime I’ve been informed that my national Identity cards have been reactivated! The struggle against tyranny continues! #RevolutionNow #WeCantContinueLikeThis

GOVERNMENT BOWS TO REACTIVATE SOWORE'S NIN AND PVC!

While we have already transited our court processes to the Federal High Court Abuja for filing this morning to challenge the constitutionality of the deactivation of the National Identity Number (NIN) and the Permanent Voters Card (PVC) of Omoyele Sowore by the agencies of the Federal Government, the good news came that the spineless but recklessly ruthless regime has reactivated the NIN and the PVC.

This Government is now a "try your luck government" which tries to unleash one form of oppression or the other, but once they see people's uprising or challenge coming, they cowardly back down. The same way the government announced there would be increase in fuel price few days ago but the moment the people, under the organised Labour, signified serious plan to occupy the street, the government recoiled. The only lesson then from this is for the people never to be tired of fighting back at policies of government that aims at snuffing life out of them.

In our earlier letters submitted on the 14th of January 2022, to the National Identity Management Commission, the Independent National Electoral commission and the Attorney-General of the Federation, we have given the Government SEVEN DAYS ULTIMATUM to reactivate Omoyele Sowore's proof of national identity or face court action. The seven-day ultimatum lapsed on the 21st of January 2022 and we have our processes ready for filing this morning in court when this news of victory came.

We are not unmindful of the antics of the Government to keep Omoyele Sowore under political arrest till 2023 presidential election is over and giving him city arrest in Abuja for 3 years now isn't working enough as his presence in Abuja has created more problems for the regime, they felt his public image has refused to thin down so deactivation of his national identification means is another resort. Sowore is a citizen of Nigeria by birth, not by registration. He is a son of the soil from the ancient riverine town of Kiribo, in Ese-Odo Local Government Area of Ondo State. He is neither from Niger nor Mali. So no one, not even the president, can deprive him of his citizenship. Deactivation of NIN amounts to illegal removal of record of citizenship from the national database and which impliedly equates to robbing a citizen of his biometric accessibility, an essential feature of modern citizenship. This violates Section 30 of the 1999 constitution.

We are not keeping eyes closed in what next move the regime may craft to achieve their aim, as eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.

If the people challenge oppression, they can win. But if they don't, they have lost! Now the people have won again and once we are not tired of fighting back, we will win again and again and again.

The struggle continues!

Useless government.

Some people praise this man when he insult Osinbajo, same people blast him when u insult Okonjo

He has paid the price

Wow!

Very confused government and it’s agent, DSS.

The keep giving the guy free publicity thereby making him more popular. It will only garner more public sympathy for him.

If you have any real case against him, go and have your day in court and stop all these needless and ridiculous drama.

Second base abeg....

Hmm. O ga o. How did we get here as a nation?

Good to know.



By the way, that frustrated MOD/ADMIN that banned me must be outta his senses.
That's the worst thou can do.

He should be deported to Cameroun

Na diz Buhari regime I know say ur Country can disown u d Way father dey disown pikin...

Tinubu is a MURDERER!

He killed Funsho Williams!

Why deactivate a citizens national identity informations ?

I can't just comprehend this!
May God save us from the hands and rules of tyrrants...

Snake in the monkey shadow

Buhari na tyrant. I blame Tinubu for these nonesense

Why?

So wait NIN and BVN can be deactivated, what are the implications of that? Does it mean you won't be able to access your linked bank accounts and Phone numbers?

If so... It means we have handed over to govt the ability to cut us off or monitor us by linking bvn and nin.

Abegi sharap.
This statement is becoming stale.
Did he hold millions of Nigerians hand to vote for APC?
Even if he supported Buhari during campaigns, Is it not left to Buhari to justify the vote of confidence reposed in him by Nigerians as a whole?

Disgraceful journalism.
The news medium did not verify if indeed Sowore's NIN was blocked,but just relied on the words of a known liar,propagandist and Photoshopper!
Shameful!!
I bet this is another of Sowore's charades.Same way he lied he was shot at a demonstration when evidence later proved it was one of his numerous lies.
I always say it.Buhari's regime is evil,but people should not allow the likes of Sowore to use their heads to be telling all kinds of lies to gain cheap publicity for himself.
Since this same APC functionaries that used his SaharaReporters to fund lies and propaganda campaigns against GEJ seem to have abandoned him,where is SR now and how many people still read their lies and propaganda?

Most on either side of the divide(APC/PDP) wants democracy but are not ready to offer it
