UPDATE - #BringBackOurGirls: Police denie ball to the arrested protest leader

Efforts by lawyers to free the detained leader of the #BringBackOurGirls protest have been stalled as the Divisional Police Officer in charge of the Asokoro police station where she is detained has “absconded.”

The police officer who is said to have exclusive knowledge of her offence locked her up and left the station after crowd began to gather to demand her release.

According Mrs. Nyarda’s lawyers, she is detained arbitrarily without an offence as the police has no documentation about her in the station.

“Her name is not listed in he ‘entry book’ at the station and no one else besides the DPO knows about her case,” her lawyers said.
