Thank God he regain his freedom from dictatorship, I will just implore him to trend softly.
The government are just looking for an avenue to shut up the people’s which won’t be possible, congrats on your freedom.
I hope the government won’t persecute him when the time comes, well-done sowore I hope one day justice will prevail.
Better, they have even over stayed. But thank God all the same
That is too bad… This administration doesn’t even allow freedom of it’s citizens talkless of expressions…
Its the right of the citzen to protest so granting him.bail is not something the oppressive government should be proud of. We are not concerned about your bail. What we are concerned about is those things that was protested against. Has it been addressed or will it be swept under the carpet as usual
