It is not yet clear why Richards was arrested, as the pro-Biafra group he leads is not outlawed. He recently formed an alliance with a controversial separatist though – Simon Ekpa.
Last week, Richards had raised alarm about his likely arrest.
Recently, the Nigerian Army and Police reportedly ransacked communities in the Bakassi peninsula in an attempt to arrest the separatist leader.
He has been arrested twice in the region
