The arrest of Audu Maikori by operatives of DSS following comments he
made about Southern Kaduna killings continues to generate more reactions
from Nigerians.
Now, his partner of many years, Paul Okeugo has just issued a statement
to say:
'We are working to secure his release and have reached out to friends
who realize the importance of sustaining democratic ideals in a country
as fractured as ours'. Read what he wrote below...
My name is Paul Okeugo and I have been Audu Maikori's friend &
Partner for years and know him to be a very honorable and passionate
man. Audu genuinely cares about Nigeria and everyone in it . He is not
one to spread false information or advocate violence . Together we have
strived to create a better future for all young people in Nigeria. Audu
exemplifies the kind of qualities we sorely need in this society.
Today Audu has been picked up by law enforcement agents over his
advocacy about the killings in #SouthernKaduna and he is presently being
held in custody.
I would like to reach out to fans and friends of Audu and our company
that we all should please exercise patience and remain calm.
We appreciate the massive love and support we have received and continue
to count on that goodwill . There is no Chocolate City without all of
you!
We are working to secure his release and have reached out to friends who
realize the importance of sustaining democratic ideals in a country as
fractured as ours.
