Adeyanju, who doubles as convener of Concerned Nigeria group was arrested at the Unity Fountain with another leader of the movement, Brian Jonah Dennis in Abuja on Friday.
Recall that a statement signed by Deji yesterday informed Nigerians that protest organised against the Nigerian government over its insistence on the secret trial of Nnamdi Kanu would kick off in Abuja today.
But in a series of tweets on Friday, Adeyanju claimed that all entrances to the Unity Fountain were barricaded by men of the Nigeria Police before he was whisked away by the officers.

Point of Correction...He is not a PDP Chieftain, he was neither a former Chieftain. He is no longer a party member of the Party and as such, should not be described as a chieftain.
