The Nigerian government has denied any involvement in the arrest of #EndSARS protesters in Egypt's capital, Cairo.
The Nigerians in Diaspora Commission Chairperson, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, said the Egyptian authorities were enforcing their restrictions on public gatherings.
She said the protesting Nigerians were not arrested at the Nigerian embassy.
The #EndSARS protests, which call for an end to police brutality in Nigeria, have spread to different parts of the world with those in the diaspora expressing solidarity.
The Nigerian government disbanded the hated Special Anti-Robbery Squad (Sars) but the protesters want major police reforms.
