Lagos APC wants to inform Nigerians that out of 28 workers at APC Data
Centre Lagos arrested by DSS, Police and the Army by 5:30 am on Saturday
morning of Nov 22nd 2014 , 25 of them have been released by 9:30 pm
yesterday. Three of them are still in the custody namely:

1. Chinedu Atuche- Data Supervisor

2 . Fayemi Olaposi- Data Supervisor

3. Chika- IT Supervisor

“We are at a loss why these three are still being held. They have
committed no offense and they are carrying out a legitimate duty. We hope
they are not being held and tortured to to provide them with the the
security password of the Data Centre . We want these workers to be
released unconditionally without any further delay”
” We insist that what happened yesterday is bizarre, crude and
unacceptable and it remains the worst form of political rascality and
irresponsibility ever recorded in Nigeria since 1999. The damage done to
the Data Centre and the violation of the fundamental human rights of the
workers tells a big story of what to expect in the days ahead. The ruling
Party is getting desperate and if they are not called to order things can
get worse”
