Aloy Ejimakor, the lawyer representing Nnamdi Kanu, has confirmed he remains in detention at the Kuje Prison, 24 hours after being arrested during the #FreeNnamdiKanu protest in Abuja.
Ejimakor released his status in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday, assuring his supporters that he was “safe and sound” but also voicing his concern over the way the police managed his case.
The human rights lawyer wrote, “I am safe and sound but still under custody at Kuje prison. The Magistrate refused to listen to our submissions. He insisted on remanding us till Friday and got his way.”

He further alleged that authorities deliberately bypassed other available Magistrate courts in the city and “headed to this one in Kuje.”
Ejimakor stated for context, “Keep in mind that they bypassed several Magistrate courts in town and headed to this one in Kuje.”
Ejimakor was one of the individuals arrested on Monday during the protest, which was led by activist Omoyele Sowore.
