TikToker, Olumide Ogunsanwo better known as SeaKing, has been freed on administrative bail by the Nigeria Police.
SeaKing, a content producer, was arrested for criticizing Pastor Enoch Adeboye, General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), over his call for his followers to fast and pray for 100 days.
The post author described Pastor Adeboye as “very stupid and foolish.”
His actions prompted the Concerned Christian Youth Forum petitioned the police and SeaKing was arrested. He was moved to the Federal Investigation Department, FID, in Abuja under DIG Dasuki Galandanchi for alleged cyber bullying.
But, Pastor Adeboye had urged the police to release SeaKing because he was only addressing his “children.”
However, activist politician, Omoyele Sowore confirmed SeaKing’s release on Monday via a post on X.
According to Sowore: “We are pleased to confirm that Olumide Ogunsanwo @seaking303 has been released from Nigeria Police Force custody, subsequent to our prompt rejection of the initial bail condition requiring a Level 12 or 10 civil servant, resulting in a swift agreement and release on administrative bail, signed by me.
“Great thanks to Inibehe Effiong, Adeyanju Deji, Tope Temokun and Marshal D F Abubakar and the great community of conscientious citizens who reject oppression of all kinds in our nation! #RevolutionNow.”
