Sowore Joins Pastor Sarah Omakwu to Champion Jabi Lake Park Preservation
Human rights activist Omoyele Sowore joined a church gathering in Abuja to support efforts to keep Jabi Lake Park open to the public. At the event led by Pastor Sarah Omakwu, Sowore described himself as “born again” and a “prayer warrior,” linking faith with civic duty to protect shared spaces. His visit highlighted ongoing debates over redevelopment plans at Jabi Lake, where residents, religious leaders and civic groups insist it must remain a public asset for recreation and community life. Sowore framed his presence as a moral stand rather than partisan politics, broadening the conversation to include faith, civic engagement and the value of public spaces in urban policy.
