The Nigerian Government has released a group of Polish students and their teacher arrested in the country during the EndBadGovernance protests.
The seven Polish citizens were detained earlier this month in Kano “over their suspicious role in the protest and flying of Russian flags”, according to the Nigerian national security agency.
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”.

Poland’s Foreign Minister, Radoslaw Sikorski in a statement on Wednesday, 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,” Sikorski said in a video posted on X, formerly Twitter.
