Earlier today, Adeyanju staged a protest in front of the headquarters of the National Human Rights Commission to canvass for obedience to a court order by the Buhari administration got more than he bargained for.
Pictures and videos posted online show hoodlums, and counter-protesters unleashing the rod on Adeyanju and his fellow protesters. Adeyanju received a beating he never saw coming as a result he was hospitalized.
Posts on Twitter claimed that the police watched the attack without making any effort to protect Adeyanju.
The incident has once again triggered some umbrage against the Buhari administration for its intolerance of dissent.
