#FreeNnamdiKanuNow: “Why We Arrested Nnamdi Kanu’s Brother, Lawyer And Others” – Police

-



The Nigeria Police Force have explained why they arrested both Nnamdi Kanu’s lawyer, Aloy Ejimakor and his brother during the #FreeNnamdiKanuNow protest in Abuja on Monday, October 20, 2025.

According to the police, Kanu’s brother and Ejimakor insisted on entering areas restricted during the protest.

The clarification was made on Monday by the Force Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, while responding to questions on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme.

Hundeyin further disclosed that all persons arrested during the protest would be charged in court after investigation.

He said: 

“We arrested Nnamdi Kanu’s brother, his lawyer because they insisted on making way to the restricted areas. And not just two of them, six others were also arrested around TRANSCORP, and for this same reason. So we arrested a total of eight of them. They are currently at the state CID, and once we conclude our investigation, just like we said in our statement, that anybody who violated that court order would be arrested, diligently investigated and prosecuted, once we conclude that, which we should tonight, then they’ll be prosecuted immediately. In less than 24 hours, they will be facing the court.”
