Nigerian Blogger, Omojuwa, others arrested in Abuja (PICTURED)

Nigerian blogger and Social media activist Japheth Omojuwa was yesterday arrested by men of the NSCDC during a peaceful protest to obtain justice for those who died in the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) recruitment.

Mr. Omojuwa who is also a YNaija columnist has clamoured for further investigation into the death and the sack of the minister of internal affairs, Abba Moro, who blamed the March 15 stampede and the resulting deaths on impatience on the part of the job-seekers.

Mr. Omojuwa was arrested along with five other protesters including public relations professional, Uche Briggs, Ikeolu Senbanjo, Tosin Adex, Calvin Lawan and one Mr. Ogunmola.

Two protesters who were arrested were photographed entering into the NSCDC truck, while Mr. Omojuwa was already inside one of their trucks

They have since been released after spending hours in SSS custody.
