Six Polish students and their teachers arrested in Nigeria during the #EndBadGevernance protests have been released.
This was disclosed by Poland’s Foreign minister, Radoslaw Sikorski in a video posted on the X Platform.
Recall that the seven Polish citizens were detained earlier this month in Kano State “because of where they were found during the protest and for displaying foreign flags.”
The Polish authorities, however, said they were University of Warsaw students and a teacher, who found themselves “in the wrong place at the wrong time”.
Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said the group had now been released.
“I would like to confirm that the young people are already free, back in Kano, on campus, with passports.
“I think the young people received an accelerated lesson in African studies, I hope they will be back in the country soon,” he added.
