"This is a shocking affront to the country’s rule of law and Nigeria must cease its dangerous attacks on freedom of expression."United States senator, Cory Booker, has joined Senator Bob Menendez, a ranking member of the US Senate's Foreign Relations Committee, in condemning the rearrest of Omoyele Sowore in court.
On Friday, Menendez had said the brutal manner in which Sowore was arrested was a blatant miscarriage of justice and promised to have his country intervene on the matter. Booker, who also reacted on Friday, described the situation as dangerous and promised to assent to any move that will uphold the rule of law in the country.
He said,"It’s appalling that NJ journalist, Omoyele Sowore, was rearrested in Nigeria hours after his release. "This is a shocking affront to the country’s rule of law and Nigeria must cease its dangerous attacks on freedom of expression."

MBuhari YeleSowore CoryBooker I have a big suspicion that Buhari is planning a sit-tight government. Otherwise, he would be afraid of what will happen to him after his 4 years are over. Such reckless disregard for the other arms of government shows a reckless boldness not usually associated with democracy.
MBuhari YeleSowore CoryBooker Idiots here still asking if Nigerian is a sovereignty nation amaze me 😂😂 a sovereign nation on paper . A country without basic amenities for over 60 years . A country where impunity is the order of the day
MBuhari YeleSowore CoryBooker There is nothing you will do in this world today people will not support you, whether it is good or bad thing. Even if you intentionally kill a person now without the person offending you some people will come out and still support you, that you did well. Nigeria is a funny place
