Police deployed to maintain law and order in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) have arrested counsel to the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, Aloy Ejimakor, during a protest in Abuja.
The lawyer, who announced his arrest via a post on his X account on Monday, October 20, 2025, said he, along with several other protesters, was apprehended during a protest demanding Kanu’s release in Abuja.
He said, “We’ve just been arrested. Myself, Prince Emanuel and others. We are at FCT Command CID. Myself, Fine Boy and others. No 1 Zaria Street, Garki 2, Abuja.”

Ejimakor had earlier accused the police of firing teargas to disperse demonstrators who had gathered in the nation’s capital.
The protesters converged on Abuja on Monday to demand the release of Kanu, who has been held by the Department of State Services (DSS) since June 2021.
Kanu’s supporters therefore embarked on a protest on Monday, calling on the federal government to comply with existing court rulings that ordered his release without delay.
