Facebook Deactivates Sowore's Account After Several Attacks On Obi by Wisdomkosi(op): 9:31am On May 23, 2025
BREAKING!!! Facebook Deactivates Sowore's Account After Several Attacks On Peter Obi

By Wisdom Nwedene

Meta, owner of popular social media platform, Facebook has deactivated account of Human Rights Activist and Politician, Omoleye Sowore.

A quick check by our correspondent shows that Sowore's account cannot be found again on Facebook after several attacks by him against Peter Obi, Labour Party’s presidential candidate in 2023.

While it's not yet clear why Facebook deactivated the account, some of his followers have started to plead with Facebook to restore the account.

One of his supporters, Emmanuel larry has pleaded and written to Facebook to restore the account.


According to Mr Larry, "Urgent Request for Account Reinstatement of Omoyele Sowore."

"Dear Facebook SupportTeam,"

"I am reaching out to urgently request the immediate restoration of the Facebook account of Omoyele Sowore (@YeleSowore), a prominent Nigerian human rights advocate, journalist, and political figure."

"His account was recently deactivated without any clear justification or prior notice of violations. We are deeply troubled by the possibility that this action may stem from political bias or external pressures, particularly from those unsettled by his outspoken commitment to justice and democratic change."

" As a global platform, Meta/Facebook has a duty to safeguard free speech, not stifle it. The deactivation of Mr. Sowore’s account raises concerns about politically driven motives, which erodes the platform’s integrity as an impartial space for discourse and activism."

We respectfully demand the following:
1. The prompt restoration of Omoyele Sowore’s Facebook account.
2. A clear and public explanation for the account’s deactivation.
3. A public assurance from Meta /Facebook to uphold political neutrality and protect the voices of human rights advocates.

"Suppressing an activist’s voice through account deactivation is tantamount to censorship. If this issue is not resolved promptly, we will pursue further action through legal, civic, and international channels."

"Sincerely,
[ Emmanuel larry ]"

Sowore you are barking at the wrong tree. Please face the government of the day that is tormenting Nigerians.

Peter Obi is not the cause of the current economic disaster in the country.

These attacks started after Rhino omonkey was nominated ambassador for goats, sheep and cows.

Sorrowe in his deluded mind thinks the more he attacks Obi, the more FG takes cognizance of him..

It’s was because of his comments on Donald Trump and his position on Ramaphosa and Trumps meeting. This struggle he will add to his series of struggles. Sowore the boss if you didn’t learn anything from Sowore by now you can never learn.

Re: Facebook Deactivates Sowore's Account After Several Attacks On Obi by 004gist:
Sowore should focus on core issues such as tackling the ruling party n security, economy etc and leave obi

Obi is not the president but a contestant like him

We had over 18 presidential candidate. Its just like Atiku will leave core issues and be talking about Dumebi Kachikwu (ADC party ) or Hamza al-Mustapha (AA party ) when they are not in charge of Nigeria rather contestants who lost

If they deactivated someone's else account later in future because they says something bad about the presidency nobody should complain o.
Selective judgmental.... When is to our advantage we celebrate, when it's against us we start complaining....

No amount of blackmail can change the reasonable Nigerians from supporting or voting Peter Obi come 2027.

Sowore the most foolish fellow, he would have made a better name siding with the masses than becoming enemy with obi. Sowore sings the same song with obi why can’t he merge with him or does Sowore think he can be a good politician without coalition. It would have been a bigger force for change than attacking people aimlessly. The pope inauguration is irrelevant to us, doesn’t change the price of food in the street of Nigeria. We want change from the sick politicians that want to grab everything from us and leave nothing for the future generations

As for the Agulu fraud, him go dey everly collect as long as his online zombiieee keeps attacking others..

Una mind no go touch ground..
Re: Facebook Deactivates Sowore's Account After Several Attacks On Obi by Kelklein(m):
Sowore is doing his homework pretty well. Attack and defame Obi for no just cause. If only he adds that energy to attack the establishment.

Obi hasn't even held any political position for over a decade. Why make attacking him your daily job..?!

Always quick to say Obi is part of the old order. How many people like Obi can you count in this country that had served this country as a governor and hadn't stolen their States dry like a squirrel.

Re: Facebook Deactivates Sowore's Account After Several Attacks On Obi by obembet(f):
Until I see Igbo insult Bianca ojukwu for working with Tinubu... I will never take obidient serious.

TINUBU go Rome, they insulted him.. Bianca praise TINUBU.. they changed the topic
