Controversial activist Kemi Seba, known for his fiercely anti-Western, pan-Africanist stance, has walked free from French custody without charges, two days after he was arrested in the nation's capital, Paris. This recent turn of events has left many questioning the French authorities' motives behind the sudden release.
French prosecutors confirmed on Thursday that Seba was released the day before, although preliminary investigations into his activities are continuing. The news has sparked heated debates across the nation, with many calling for transparency in the ongoing probe.
The France-born activist, whose real name is Stellio Gilles Robert Capo Chichi, was detained on Monday on suspicion of "foreign interference" in French affairs, heightening tensions among his supporters. The exact circumstances surrounding Seba's arrest have not been disclosed by the authorities, fuelling further speculation.
As a well-known figure in France, Seba's anti-Western views have often landed him in hot water. His pan-Africanist stance, while receiving praise from some quarters, has been met with skepticism and, at times, outright hostility from others. In 2006, he founded the organization "Urgences Panafricanistes" (Pan-Africanist Emergency) and has been an outspoken critic of Western foreign policy.
With the ongoing investigation into Seba's activities still shrouded in mystery, the French government is under increasing pressure to clarify the circumstances surrounding his detention and subsequent release. As the situation unfolds, many will be watching closely for any updates in the high-profile case.
