Nigerian singer, Banky W has reacted to the release of Nigerian activist, Omoyele Sowore.
You didn’t need to be a voter or volunteer for Mr Sowore, to see that this was clearly an infringement on a basic human right and a grave injustice; freedom of speech and the right to peacefully protest is the unassailable right of every Nigerian citizen.
I'm so thankful that our Justice System made the right call by granting YeleSowore's release. Nigeria has a way of constantly punishing the innocent, and trampling on the rights, dreams and hopes of the regular citizens. (1)

Every time our leaders do blatant wrong and get away with it, we lose a little piece of our soul. We become numb, we lose hope, and we subconsciously accept that this is how things are and there's nothing we can say or do to change it. (2)

May God bless those in our Justice System who did the right thing & stood on the right side of history, and may God strengthen & bless @YeleSowore, his wife & family as they've endured the most difficult of times, while only being guilty of speaking up for a better Nigeria. (End)
