News of the actor being arraigned in court on charges of “public incitement and assaulting police officers” came after he disclosed that he is being held at Area P police division.
Filmmaker and actor, Lanre Adediwura confirmed that Damola was taken to Ogba Magistrate court after being “kept in police custody for standing against police intimidation.”
He wrote;
I can’t imagine Damola Olatunji @damolaolatunji had been in police custody since yesterday only for standing against police intimidation. He is currently being taken to Ogba Magistrate court.
Please well-meaning Nigerians, we need you to get this to the appropriate quarter.
Also sharing a video of Damola in court, Lanre wrote;
All we are asking for is freedom for @damolaolatunji
He was only defending a fellow Nigerian Citizen against possible humiliation. He is not a trouble maker as record has it.
His only offence was standing for a Nigerian.
