SERAP Calls On President Trump To Help Free Sowore From DSS Detention by SaviMedia: 10:11am On Nov 16, 2019
...Nigerians reacts.

A nonprofit, nonpartisan, legal & advocacy organisation, SERAP, has called on the US President, Donald J. Trump to come for the release of a prominent journalist, Omoyele Sowore.

ABACITYBLOG reported that Sowore is still in DSS custody despite meeting bail conditions given by the Federal High Court, Abuj. The DSS is charging Sowore on seven counts bordering on treasonable felony, cyberstalking President Muhammadu Buhari among other offences.

While calling on President Trump for his intervention on the release of the latter, SERAP noted that Sowore, is a US permanent resident with rights and should be release.

"Dear @realDonaldTrump Nigerians need you. 8 days after perfecting their bail conditions, activists Sowore & Bakare remain arbitrarily detained. Sowore is a US permanent resident with rights. He needs you & Nigerians need you to publicly ask President Buhari to obey court orders.

However, Nigerians are not comfortable with the action of SERAP, as the of the opinion that such call is wrong given the onus that Nigeria is a sovereign nation and Trump has no right to intervene.

Donald Trump has a lot on his mind these days and I can assure you that Nigeria is not one of them.
