Nnamdi Kanu: NANS releases programme for nationwide protest
The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has released a programme to participate in the ‘Free Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’ massive protest scheduled for October 20, 2025.
This was disclosed on Monday in a statement by NANS president, Atiku Isah.
According to the statement, the resolution to mobilise students for the protest was reached at NANS’ executive meeting chaired by Isah.
NANS noted that the mobilisation is part of the collective demand for justice, civil rights, and democratic accountability in Nigeria.
It said, “Following the resolution reached at the recent executive meeting of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), which was chaired by the National President, Comrade Atiku Isah, the leadership of NANS hereby calls on all Nigerian students to participate in the ‘Free Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’ nationwide protest scheduled to be held on Monday, 20th October, 2025.
“To ensure effective coordination and participation across the country, students are to assemble at designated zonal points before proceeding to Abuja:
“South West Zone: Students are to converge in Ekiti State and depart for Abuja on Sunday, 19th October, 2025.
“South East Zone: All students are to meet in Enugu.
“South-South Zone: The convergence point is Edo State.
“North East Zone: Students are to assemble in Bauchi State.
“North West Zone: The meeting point is Kano State, and
“North Central Zone: Students will gather in Lokoja, Kogi State.
“For smooth transportation, ten (10) buses will be allocated to each zone. Detailed travel plans and further arrangements will be communicated directly to the respective Students’ Union Government (SUG) Presidents by the national leadership.
“This mobilisation is part of the collective demand for justice, civil rights, and democratic accountability. As students, we affirm that freedom is achieved through struggle, and we remain committed to peaceful advocacy for what is right.”
The students’ planned protest comes at a time when Nigerian government-owned universities have been shut down due to strike action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities since Monday.
The development comes after former presidential candidate and activist Omoyele Sowore had announced October 20,2025 for a protest march to the Presidential Villa to demand the release of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra.
Nnamdi Kanu has been under the custody of the Department of State Services since June 2021, when he was rearrested in Kenya.
Ekwutosblog reports that there have been several calls on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to release Kanu.

Kidnappers Took Loan With My Phone – Victim Recounts Ordeal
A woman has shared a disturbing account of her abduction in Abuja, detailing how kidnappers allegedly exploited her personal information during captivity.
According to her, she was kidnapped while going home in a bus and kept blindfolded for two days as her captors demanded a ransom of ₦5 million from her family and friends.
She further alleged that while she was still in captivity, the abductors accessed her phone and used it to download a loan application.
With her ATM card and identification documents in her possession at the time, they reportedly secured a loan of ₦148,000 without her knowledge.
The victim said she remained unaware of the transaction throughout her ordeal, as she was blindfolded and focused on pleading for her life.
She revealed that when she later found out and wrote to the loan app, they insisted she must pay off the loan.
“I was kidnapped in a bus in Abuja. They blindfolded my eyes for two days. Even after asking for ransom of 5 million from my family and friends, they took a loan. They downloaded a loan app on my phone, and I always carry my ATM card and my ID cards in my bag, so they used it to up the loan app and took a loan of 148 thousand Naira. I didn’t even know about the loan all the time I was there cause I was blindfolded and just begging for my life….” she partly said.

Man Ends His Marriage After Finding Photographs Of His Wife With Another Man While Browsing Google Maps
A husband was left shocked and reportedly had to end his marriage after discovering photos of his wife with another man while using Google Maps.
The man was using Google Maps to plan a route before setting off on a journey when he noticed an image of his wife sitting on a bench, stroking the hair of another man whose head rested in her lap.
Captured by a Google camera vehicle in Lima, the Peruvian capital, the stunned husband said the photograph grabbed his attention because the woman pictured seemed to be wearing identical clothing to pieces his wife owned.
Although the photo dated back to 2013, the furious husband challenged his wife with proof of her previous betrayal.

The pair, whose identities remain anonymous, subsequently divorced after the woman confessed to having an affair.
In a twist of fate, she was photographed with her lover on a bench near the city’s Puente de los Suspiros de Barranco (Bridge of Sighs of the Ravine).
The husband recently posted the photographs on Facebook where they sparked considerable reaction amongst users.
One social media commenter, San Pateste, said: “What a small world it is… It would have been enough if she said to her husband that she did not love him any more.”
Guillermo Sanchez added: “Out of 100 women, 90 per cent are not loyal, the rest are loyal and only have one eye (hahaha) or are immortal (hahaha).”
