Real Reason Buhari Released Sowore [ See Leaked Letter From US Govt] by agentakins: 7:17am On Dec 25, 2019
It’s no more news that Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the federation, Abubakar Malami, through the DG, has ordered the DSS to release Omoyele Sowore after spending 124 days.

Despite two court order to effect Sowore’s release, the federal government and the Department of State Security (DSS) failed to comply with court rulings with continued incarceration of the Sowore, who was accused of trying to overthrow the FG with his call for revolution.

The Buhari administration has come under several condemnation form both local and international community due to her action on Sowore’s detention, likening this administration to a military dictatorship ruling.

However, new evidence has came to light since Sowore’s release around 6pm on Christmas eve that the govt released Sowore due to immense pressure from the United States. The US govt had threaten Buhari, stating that his failure to comply with court order would mean that the White House might severe all relationship with the 77-year-old president.

Leaked letter from the United States Congress, date December 20, 2019 showed how 4 US Senators and 2 Congress Men wrote letter to the Nigerian Government demanding the releases of Omoyele Sowore, who is the publisher of US based online news publication; The Sahara Reporters.

In their letter, the US Congress states that;

“ Mr. Attorney General, we request that you take immediate steps to ensure the safety and security of Mr. Sowore while he is held in government custody; work to facilitate a speedy and fair resolution to the current circumstances of his re-detention ; and ensure that he receives a legally sound and credible trial, consistent with Nigeria's established judicial proceedings and therulings that follow.

Indefinite detention in defiance of court orders and/or unfairly conducting Mr. Sowore's legal prosecution will only serve to tarnish Nigeria's international reputation and its standing as a leading African democracy. Doing so risks empowering other voices who would seek to work against you. Your leadership in facilitating genuine progress toward respect for the rule of law can continue to pave the way for closer ties between the United States and Nigeria for years to come, strengthening continue economic growth, development and security cooperation. We urge you to show leadership in this case and on critical issues.”

Why do you think President Buhari ordered the release of Omoyele Sowore after consistently defying court orders?

The list of human right abuses by General Mohammadu Buhari is increasing by the day.

The list of nepotic steps and appointments without recourse to national character is alarming

The moves to enshrine sharia and promote Islam without respecting the religious balance and secular state of Nigeria is worrisome

The absurd and flagrant abuse of court orders is head aching

The seemingly anti corruption stand used to witch hunt oppositions and critics is absurd. Yet, corruption walks in the corridor of power (Babachir comes to mind....)

When will GMB become democratic and respect the rule of law and constitutional provisions

When....when....when...??

Why do you have to make anything sound weird? The Latter was released not leaked.
It's very good for the president to take advise from US if it's good for the country.
But a president should never and will never coward to any group threat, revolutionary or secessionist they may be.

The democrats in USA congress do not have any backbone to enhance foreign influence of USA. The group of signees of the letter is not bipartisan therefore command no respect with the executive.

For Dasuki, no but Yele has been courting the attention of the American leaders since his detention.

Dasuki happened to gain his freedom because Yele has brought more attention to the foolish acts of this government.


I haven't seen any other Nigerian who caused this kind of pressure from the USA on this clueless government than Yele at the moment.

Quote me with facts please.

Whatever, this gesture will never exonerate the APC-led regime of all the utter impunity, lawlessness, human rights abuses/violations, senseless uncondemned killings by Fulanis etc that have been perpetuated under it.
