Convener of the Concerned Nigerians Group, Deji Adeyanju, has alleged that some top government sympathizers tried to bribe his group to stop its planned protest against the detention of Omoyele Sowore, a co-convener of RevolutionNow movement.

Deji disclosed this on Tuesday at the ongoing protest in front of the Headquarters of the Department of State Services, DSS, at Aso Drive in Abuja.

He also displayed the said sum before the media.

Deji Adeyanju stated thus:,

“We were offered one million Naira at gunpoint with a promise for more, for us not to hold this rally. Those who gave us this money know themselves, we also know those who gave us the money.

We will not compromise, if those who gave us the money don’t come and collect it back today, we will give it to Femi Falana , SAN to defray Sowore’s legal costs.” Deji concluded.

Sowore is currently held in custody of the secret police against court order

Sowore is currently held in custody of the secret police against court order.

Nevertheless, last Wednesday, a Federal High Court in Abuja, ordered the release of Sowore alongside Olawale Adebayo.

The DSS is yet to carry out the order. DSS rather claimed that no surety had come to take Sowore on bail.

Against this backdrop, Sowore’s lawyer, Femi Falana alleged that the DSS was plotting to file fresh charges against his client.
