Activist JusticeCrack, whose real name is Chidiebere Justice Mark, has initiated a lawsuit against the Nigerian Army, the Chief of Army Staff, and the Attorney-General of the Federation. These charges stem from allegations of rights violations during his detention, which he disclosed through a public statement on Wednesday.
JusticeCrack claimed that Army personnel detained him on April 28, 2026, treating him in a degrading manner. He detailed being handcuffed, blindfolded, and subjected to harsh conditions, including exposure to the sun and extreme cold. He further alleged that he was denied access to essential resources like water during his detention.
After his initial detention, JusticeCrack was transferred to the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) and remained there for about 21 days. He clarified that this suit is separate from the criminal case against him, which was scheduled for court proceedings on September 28. The lawsuit aims to determine the circumstances surrounding his detention and the alleged violations, seeking justice, accountability, and adherence to the rule of law.
