Sowore Detention Not Only Unconstitutional But Also Unlawful – Ezekwesili by shehuolayinka(m): 6:37pm On Sep 21, 2019
Former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, says the continued detention of Publisher of SaharaReporters and co-convener #RevolutionNow protest, Omoyele Sowore was not only unconstitutional but also unlawful.

Ezekwesili said this on Saturday in a series of tweets on her official and verified Twitter handle.

She described the government of the day, as one which is intolerant of criticism, which she said is guaranteed in the constitution.

Ezekwesili said, “We stand on with @YeleSowore and defend his constitutional right and freedom to protest any matter of governance that worries him. Mr Sowore’s convening of citizens to protest poor governance – via #RevolutionNow– is constitutionally guaranteed.

“Democracy and voice are Siamese twins. The good kind of Siamese twins. No one regardless of their position is given the right to shut down voices like @YeleSowore’s for daring to disagree. How long shall it take before the FG @NigeriaGov understands the basics of democracy?
