Nigerian human-rights lawyer, Inibehe Effiong has taken to Twitter to share a photo of him in a van at Uyo prison after he was handed a one-month jail term by a judge.

Recall that the popular lawyer and activist claimed he was given the sentence after allegedly asking that armed police officers in court be removed because he didn't feel safe.

Sharing the photo on Twitter, he wrote;

''Inside van at Uyo prison waiting for the issue of custody to be determined, between Uyo or Ikot Ekpene prison. History will vindicate the just.

They’re saying that I can’t be jailed in Uyo prison because of COVID protocol, that I have to be in Ikot Ekpene prison. Uyo prison has rejected me. We are going back to the court now for His Lordship to determine where I should be jailed. History will vindicate the just.''
