SaharaReporters had reported that Nigerian activists, Michael Adaramoye, also known as Michael Lenin who was arrested, for his involvement in the recently concluded 10-day #EndBadGovernance protests will be arraigned in court by the Nigerian government on trumped-up charges alongside other activists on Monday.

 

Take-It-Back Movement confirmed this on Saturday, adding that Nigerians should show solidarity by attending the court sitting by 9 am on Monday.

 

"Michael Adaramoye, who was arrested on August 5 by the Tinubu administration, has been arraigned in court alongside other activists.

 

"Let’s support him by attending the court sitting on Monday, 9AM," the statement added.
