Suspected miscreants on Monday attacked and disrupted a peaceful protest organised by a coalition of civil society groups over the continued detention of Omoyele Sowore #RevolutionNow convener.
The activists had gathered at the National Human Rights Commission in Maitama, Abuja, to present a letter to the chairman of the commission when they were attacked by the hoodlums.

The youths descended on one of the coalition leaders, Deji Adeyanju, as the other campaigners and journalists scampered for safety.
Adeyanju sustained some injuries and was subsequently rescued from his assailants.
He is presently being treated at an unidentified hospital.
