An Edo State High Court sitting in Benin City has granted the Department of State Services (DSS) permission to remand Kola Edokpayi, leader of the Benin-based Marxist group, Talakawa Movement, pending further investigation.

Edokpayi and four others were arrested by the DSS on April 30, 2025, for allegedly planning a rally in of Burkina Faso’s military junta leader, Ibrahim Traore.

On Monday, the DSS arraigned Edokpayi and one associate on a one-count charge of unlawful procession, which the agency said contravenes Section 63(1)(b) of the Edo State Criminal Law, 2022.

In his ruling, Justice Anthony Nosa Erahabor stated that four days would be sufficient for the DSS to conclude its investigation.

He, however, advised the Service to consider granting the defendants istrative bail, which would require them to report to the DSS office on specified days.

The case was adjourned to May 8, 2025.

A security source revealed that the Talakawa Movement allegedly used social media platforms, particularly WhatsApp, to mobilize youths across Edo State for the planned rally.

Investigators reportedly traced fundraising efforts to an ( Number: 2177092996, Name: Aiguokhian Raphael), allegedly used to collect large sums of money in of the rally.

Doing a rally for a foreign soldier in Nigeria is risky, president Tinubu is working very hard to keep the country safe so DSS is doing the right thing.

This mad man had the option of freedom and peace of mind but he said na Kuje dey hungry am. Sometimes when you are getting lots of money through awoof and donations, village people will just push you to do some foolish things. This one also has his own followers donating money into his . There's a senior cellmate in Kuje who also started by collecting donations from ipob , then the money got into his head. Another in Finland has also landed in jail. Just give them free money through donations and they will start losing their little brain. There's one that's has also entered the EFCC net, he has spent two days and two nights in detention. By the time the court of law will finish with them, all of them will their supreme leader in Kuje where they will live together happily after.

What law did they break by protesting on anyone's behalf?
What have they done to those who protest on behalf of Palestinians, Mohammed or Iran?
You guys from the SW who these arrogance, lawlessness and evils being perpetrated by both the govt and her security agents should know that your kinsman,Terribu, won't be there forever.

The evil and lawlessness you today will surely come back to hunt you in future.

Nothing is ever right in nigeria. I some time ago some people in the North match in of Libya. Most of their imam condemned American intervention in Libya. No DSS or state secret service made any arrest.

If we continue on this path, one day this country will implode.

Oh so it was ok for Bro. Kola to allegedly Marxism or be a Marxist before Captain Ibrahim Traoré came to prominence in the global eye.
He cancelled the rally and is still catching stress from some colonial lapdogs.

Are we now in the cold War era now?

Many Africans are now ing traore because their own leaders are leaking western asses.
Even me dey the guy because I am tired of all this our leaders. He is a Muslim, and I am a Christian but I am a fan.

DSS that couldn't arrest any guy that threatens the president from the North, is now suddenly active in the South. I have watched many clips where small children, adult and jihadist would threaten a whole president in the North, and nothing will happen. Is that the people in the northern areas are untouchable? Or the president and all security agencies become imbeciles when the threat comes from that region?
