A Magistrate Court in Apapa, Lagos, has ordered the release of 17-year-old Alabi Quadri, who was arrested months ago for standing in front of the convoy of former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi.
Quadri’s arrest had sparked widespread discussions on social media, with many Nigerians calling for his release and criticizing the authorities for detaining a minor over such an incident.
During the court proceedings, the magistrate acknowledged the public interest in the case and emphasized the importance of upholding the rights of every citizen, especially minors.
Following the court’s decision, Quadri was released from custody, bringing relief to his family and supporters who had been advocating for his freedom.
