Omoyele Sowore, convener of #RevolutionNow Movement, has said that whether President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration like it or not, revolution will take place until Nigerians regain their freedom.

Sowore said this on Monday at the federal high court in Abuja where he is currently being arraigned for “conspiracy to commit treason and insulting President Muhammadu Buhari”.



The activist wonder why he was denied access to telephone and media while Boko Haram top commanders who engaged in the act of terrorism have access to telephone, TV and even satellite channels in their cell.

“I am not allowed to see sunshine. I’ve not been outside except today. I am happy people are staying strong,” he said.




“I have no doubt this will come to an end in favour of the Nigerian people. Whether you like it or not, the revolution will happen. It is only a matter of time. They gave me no access to telephone. No TV. No newspapers.

“What is interesting is that Boko Haram commanders who are engaged in high level terrorism have access to telephone, TV and even cable in their cells. So you wonder which one is better: a freedom fighter or a terrorist.”


He also said he has a bad shoulder following the way he was rough handled when arrested.
