Nollywood actress, Yvonne Jegede, has joined other Nigerians to call for the release of social critic, Justice Crack.
Justice was arrested on April 26 after sharing a video in which he called out the Nigerian Army over the poor food rations given to soldies. The Army accused him of attempting to incite the soldiers against their superiors. He was charged to court on Monday, May 4 and remanded in DSS custody till May 25 for hearing of his bail application and commencement of his trial.
In a video shared, Yvonne said she acknowledges that Justice has done wrong by dabbling into the affairs of the military but begged for pardon in his behalf..
‘’I am humbly begging for the release of Justice Crack. I have come to understand that he has done wrong. I have come to understand that a civilian should not dabble into military stuff. I have come to understand that and because of that, I am going to say on his behalf, , his family, his wife and his kids, his friends, associates, please release him back to his family. We have established that he is wrong and I am sorry on everybody’s behalf”
‘’Let’s not lie, things are not going well in Nigeria and this young man was just trying to pitch in, to see how we can get better as a country but I guess, we did not know that anything that has to do with the military is out of touch for we civilians, and so we are sorry. I am sorry on his behalf” she said
