Detained convener of Katsina protest released — Official
The co-convener of the protest, Bishir Dauda, told PREMIUM TIMES on Thursday that his colleague had been released.
Mr Sharif was arrested by the police on Tuesday in Katsina and taken to Abuja for allegedly staging the protest ”without the approval of the security agencies.” Mr Dauda said Mr Sharif arrived Katsina State after the protest was over, but he and others voluntarily visited the police command to thank the commissioner ”for professionally handling the protest.”
Meanwhile, the police commissioner in Katsina, Sanusi Buba, had said the protest was illegal ”as the protesters did not get the permission of the command before embarking on it”.
