    #EndSARS frontliners, Eromosele, Odele ‘fall in love’

    Two frontliners during the #EndSARS protest, Eromosele Adene, popularly known as Eromz and Modupe Odele, popularly known by her @Mochievous Twitter handle have apparently fell in love.

    TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports the couple has been sharing loved up tweets on Twitter since after the secret dinner they had surfaced in the social media.

    Recall that Eromz was picked up by the police in the aftermath of the EndSARS protest and the shooting that occurred at the Lekki Toll Gate Plaza in Lagos State.

    He was granted bail and released after meeting the bail condition of N1 million with two sureties. That was after spending 10 days in police custody.

    On the other hand, Odele’s passport was seized by the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos while travelling out of the country to celebrate her birthday.

    Her offence was that she partook in the #EndSARS protest. However, sequel to the outrage that erupted on social media, the service contacted Odele to come pick the passport.

    The sad tale that resonated with the #EndSARS protest is gradually becoming a story of love.

    From all indications, Odele fired the shots first. This time, not from the barrels of the guns but supposedly from the heart.

    “Hey @simplyEromz had fun at dinner. We should do again soon,” Odele tweeted at Eromz with loved up emoji.

    In response, Eromz tweeted in the affirmative, saying, “Yes! I thought I was gonna have to ask. Had fun too, see you soon”.

    Eromz tweeted further, describing Miss Odele as “beautiful, funny, smart, visionary, banging body,” adding “Omo, a whole spec! Wahala for who dem never arrest ooo! @PoliceNG una thank you o”.

    While it is yet to be known if these love birds are really serious or just catching cruise, tweeps want to see this happen for real.

    Already, tweeps have started selecting ashoebi colours for the #EndSARS marriage ceremony.

    BREAKING: Court grants Eromosele Adene bail after 10 days in police custody

    There was mild drama at the Yaba Magistrates Court as #EndSARS campaigner, Eromosele Adene was granted bail after spending 10 days in police custody.

    TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports Eromosele, popularly known as Eromz, was granted bail on Tuesday with the bail set at N1 million.

    The magistrate said it was important that Eromosele’s fundamental right not be infringed upon in the interest of justice.

    Drama started when some persons started chanting “#EndSARS now” in the courtroom after Eromosele was granted bail.

    TNG gathers over 8 police vehicles filled with police officers left the court premises after bail was granted to Eromosele.

    The Yaba Magistrates Court granted bail to the #EndSARS campaign with the bail set at N1 million with two sureties required.

    Police counsel argued in court that Eromosele’s fundamental right can be temporarily seized to prevent the commission of a crime.

    He said organisers should be arrested if they allow peaceful protests snowball into anarchy. He hinted at the recent #EndSARS protests as an example.

    The police prosecutor then requested the magistrate grant the Police a remand order to keep Eromosele in custody while he’s investigated for acts including criminal incitement under Nigeria’s Terrorism Act.

    However, Eromosele’s counsel described the application filed by the Police as “a threat to his fundamental rights”, adding, “All weapons fashioned against him shall fail”.

    Eromosele’s counsel argued that the Police have had enough time to investigate the case since he has spent 10 days in custody already.

    He said his freedom should not depend on the ability of the Police to speedily investigate the case against him.

    Eromosele’s counsel said he has the constitutional right to call for a protest, and noted that he has not been accused of calling for a riot.

    “They (Police) are trying to overreach not only the defendant, but the court of law,” he said.

    Eromosele’s counsel says he’s being used as a scapegoat by the Police, stressing that “The court should not allow itself to be used to cover incompetence.”

    He then requested that the court grant bail to Eromosele.
