Sowore, Others Begin Mobilisation For October 20 #FreeNnamdiKanu Protest At Aso Rock

Gudu Igbo Association in Abuja on Monday invited Sowore to address its members and mobilise them for the protest to demand the immediate release of Nnamdi Kanu.

Human rights activist Omoyele Sowore commenced mobilisation on Monday, October 13, for the planned October 20 #FreeNnamdiKanu march protest at the Presidential Villa, demanding the immediate and unconditional release of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

SaharaReporters was informed that the Gudu Igbo Association in Abuja on Monday invited Sowore to address its members and mobilise them for the protest to demand the immediate release of Nnamdi Kanu.

Confirming the commencement of mobilisation for the protest in a post on his verified X (formerly Twitter) account on Monday, Sowore wrote, “Today, we’ve commenced the nationwide mobilization for #FreeNnamdiKanuNow #MNK20 March to Aso Rock Villa.”

In a video attached to his post, Kanu’s Special Counsel, Barrister Aloy Ejimakor, is seen addressing the crowd, who chanted songs of praise and solidarity with Sowore’s name as they reiterate their unflinching commitment to participate in the protest.

Sowore, on Thursday, October 9, announced October 20 as the date for a protest march to the Presidential Villa (Aso Rock), Abuja, to demand the release of Kanu, who has been detained by the Department of State Services (DSS) since June 2021, following his abduction and extraordinary rendition from Kenya.

On Tuesday, October 7, Sowore called on political leaders and other stakeholders from the South-East region to join him in a peaceful march to the Presidential Villa, Abuja, to demand the immediate release of the IPOB leader.

In a post on his X (formerly Twitter) account, Sowore stated that he was ready to set aside political differences in pursuit of justice for Kanu.

The former presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) wrote, “I will set aside my differences with some politicians for one cause.

“I challenge every politician or person of good conscience from the Southeast who says they want Nnamdi Kanu released to stop the rhetoric. Time for action is NOW. Let’s march to the Aso Rock Villa.”

Sowore urged prominent figures from the region, including governors, lawmakers, traditional and religious leaders, to take concrete steps beyond verbal support for Kanu’s release.

He specifically tagged Anambra State Governor Chukwuma Soludo, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, Abia State Governor Alex Otti, and former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi, challenging them to join in the protest.

“No more empty noise. Let Governor Soludo (@CCSoludo), Senator Abaribe (@SenatorAbaribe), Alex Otti (@alexottiofr), Peter Obi (@PeterObi), and all others who claim to care step up and join us in person,” he said.

Sowore stressed that the march would be peaceful and lawful, aimed at demanding justice and an end to what he described as the persecution of Nnamdi Kanu.

Since the renewed campaign for Kanu’s release, the movement has attracted broad support, including from Abia State lawmakers, former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, MASSOB founder Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, and Kanu’s special counsel, Barrister Ejimakor.

What's this man up to?
We watch...

Sowore should be calming down oo

Remember MNK said (and I quote) "NOBODY SHOULD BEG ON MY BEHALF"

The zoo government has got absolutely nothing on him

Mobilize who and who?

I just hope Sowore will not join Nnamdi Kanu in the prison

The government is now tired of holding him, they have resorted to using government agents to stage protests. But what sane Government will sign peace pact with boko haram and fulani terrorists but decide to hold a non violent activist in custody.

I just feel Nigerian security agents and forces should under go a psychological check. It doesn't make sense . Even imbeciles will not release violent snakes and scorpions and hold on to a dog or parrot because it barks

Don’t worry he shall fall so soon…. That guy ehn soon not far from him again.

How is he non violent? His videos in the US begging for money to buy arms are still probably there.

It is time, october 20th no going back. I hope all well meaning Nigerians support the movement to free Nnamdi Kanu

If Simon Ekpa can chop baked beans, Nnamdi Kanu can eat Ewa goyin infested with weevils.

According to the law, before any protest the Nigerian police must be informed. I hope he has done that

Commentor:

Nothing like half or watery beans in Finland prison.
Believe me, if they show you Finland correctional institution, you will beg Tinubu to allow you to spend the rest of your life there

Any body can do video and request for money to buy arms, thos doesn't make him an arms smuggler, a pastor in redeemed Christian church of God once vowed to invoke the gods of Lagos against the Igbo race, the government of Lagos never accused her of violence, the rccg church never accused her or Satanism or paganism or even violence, how on earth is holding a meeting and requesting for arms now violence.

When I've lived a much better life than the average Finn?

See this one.

Wow see the fire in him. He’s the real reincarnation of Ojukwu and the messiah of Igbo people. This is really amazing to behold……. now we shall sing his praise that Igbo children yet unborn will know their true messiah.

Except some people actually responded and gave him money to fund the activities of people like Ikonso. The 200 human heads Nnamdi Kanu requested to be buried with him should be considered as what?
The problem with many of you is that you think we all suffer from amnesia.
Non violent my foot.

All these are mere speculations and talks , Mc oluomo once threatened to attack any igbo that doesn't vote APC in Lagos, the Oba of Lagos vowed to drown igbos in Lagos and these people are still walking around free. Will the government sign peace pact with boko haram, fulani herdsmen and allow thugs like Mc oluoma and the oba of Lagos wall around free but keep Nnamdi Kanu in custody

kettykin:

Threatening is one thing, actually killing 30 people to bury a criminal terrorist is another level of savagery.
Don't try to insult us by Saying Nnamdi Kanu was not violent.
His audio messages during the End Sars pointing out people to be attacked and properties to be burnt down are still there. Non violent indeed.

I just dey laugh

Sowore never learn from wetin happen for January 1966.

He go still chop insult from the people wey him dey do oversabi for!

It's easy to decipher those with "poor knowledge" of history!👌

Please, nobody should quote my post!

. Why do you find joy in ridiculing the igbos bro?

This people have not done you or any Nigerian of today any wrong. This people are yet to near the seat of power since your birth. Why do you hate them so much that you find joy whenever misfortunes befalls them? They don't deserve this kind of hatred. I am igbo man

I find it very appalling seeing the rest of Nigerians led by the yorubas in pulling igbos down, tarnishing the image of an entire tribe for no reason whatsoever

I have not seen you putting this much of an effort in fighting the fulanis who have killed and maimed people from your tribe and my tribe neither have I seen you attacking the yorubas whose son(tinubu) have made sure that majority of our people went back to absolute poverty

What is really the crime of an igbo man in Nigeria today?

I want an honest answer please

Ah, They'll soon pull down & demolish that market.
Watch and see!

Will you stop that nonsense?

What did Kumuyi do to Kanu that he had to threaten him?

What was Tinubu's crime that Kanu requested his followers to torch all his businesses and terminate the lives of any of his relatives.

Let's not even go to their acts before the civil war.

I have never seen a group so welcomed into a society yet hating on their hosts and calling them names to their face.

It is obvious that many commenting on this thread and other similar threads against Nnamdi Kanu don't like the igbo people, that is why there is a concerted effort by these malicious mischievious commentators to politicize Sowore's fight for justice as being an attempt to steal Peter Obi's votes. Nigerians need to choose if they want a country built on justice or one built on lies and injustice.

If Nnamdi Kanu must be jailed for whatever trumped up charges some of you on this platform like helinues are demanding then the government must first obey court order by releasing him. None of you commenting here against Nnamdi Kanu would want your rights or that of any of your family members violated the way his right is been violated just because he is an igbo man.

Nigeria remains an unjust nation unless Nnamdi Kanu is set free.

Sowore the fearless

Even the person that forgot Kanu in prison is dea.d.

What are the courts doing for God sake

I think Kanu would be released after Tpain 2027 election
Tpsin will not want votes from the south to be split since he is currently buying southern governors
Kanu could distort his plans

This protest may escalate to riot if not properly handled. It shouldn't be allowed to hold
