The Nigerian activist, Kunle Garb, who was arrested and prosecuted by Benin Republic authorities, has been released. He, however, said that he had no regrets over his unlawful arrest and detention by Benin Republic police officers. It was further gathered that Garb was arrested allegedly for resisting Benin’s encroachment on the Nigerian land through the Igbokofi village. “[I was arrested] for defending Nigeria, my fatherland from being encroached into by Benin Republic. “My fellow country men and women, fellow compatriots, I have no regrets passing through all I went through in the hands of Benin Republic government for Nigeria.”
