Lies! I dont see anybody getting arrested and taking a picture, looking very relaxed. They were probably taking a stroll.

that's how police still arrest well known Nigerians today so don't use Soyinka case as a yardstick on the method of Nigerian police then.if you are nobody in the 60's or a radical Naija police will beat you before you reach station sef,listen to fela songs.
