#EndSARS campaigner, Eromosele Adene who was arrested by the police on Saturday, November 7 has allegedly been moved from Lagos to Abuja.
News of Eromosele’s move to Abuja was reported to have been confirmed by his sister, Onomene Adene who said her brother was moved from Lagos to Abuja in order to avoid news of his detention sparking a fresh protest in Lagos.
According to Onomene, when her brother’s lawyer arrived at the Area F command on Monday, November 9, he was informed that Eromosele had been moved.
She said:
“He has been moved to Abuja and I think they decided to move him because they would not be able to control the outrage in Lagos. He was detained for over 48 hours without bail. He was first taken to the CP’s office in Lagos, then moved to Panti. When the noise started, he was moved to Area F and on Monday morning, when the lawyer visited the place, we were told he had been moved.”
Why Eromosele Adene was arrested
According to Punch newspaper, Eromosele and some others had planned to hold a protest on Saturday (the same day of his arrest) and had distributed fliers to the effect which contained his phone number.
Policemen were said to have gotten hold of the flier, tracked his phone and arrested him at his house.
Eromosele Adene was arrested by 15 policemen at his Ikeja home and was first taken to the office of the Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu, before being transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Panti.
