Activisit, Deji Adeyanju, has spent 53 days in prison. According to a post sent in by the #Free DejiAdeyanjuNOW movement, Deji is being detained at Kano Central prison for an offense he was acquitted and discharged on 10yrs ago.
According to the statement from the movement, his arrest all started when he led a protest to the Force headquarter in Abuja calling on the Nigerian Police Force not to get involved in politics.

We do not known the condition under which he is kept, we fear for his life and safety. We are calling on the government, the judiciary and all liberty lovers to demand the release of our son, brother and friend, Deji Adeyanju. #FreeDejiAdeyanju'' the group wrote
