Human rights organisations under the umbrella of the South-East/South-South Civil Society Forum have condemned in very strong terms the alleged torture and unlawful detention of a Rivers-based activist, Remi Izuchukwu. Izuchukwu was arrested on August 31, 2022, by soldiers of the Nigerian Army stationed at the Oyigbo-Express junction, on the Port Harcourt-Aba Expressway. The rights groups while demanding an in-depth investigation into the matter, called on the military authorities to caution Sergeant Peter Atuluku.
