Publisher of Sahara Reporters, Omoyele Sowore, has been reportedly beaten up and arrested by men of the Department of State Services (DSS) for allegedly flouting the order of the secret service which had restricted the number of media houses to cover the resumed trial of Nnamdi Kanu to ten.

Recall that from the list of the media houses contained in a letter to the Federal High Court of Nigeria, Abuja, dated July 23, 2021, and signed by the Chief Information Officer, Catherine Oby Christopher, Sahara Reporters was not among.

Lawyer to Sowore, Inibehe Effiong, who posted the development on his Facebook alleged that he was picked by the DSS and Nigeria Police officers.

“He was far away from the entrance of the Federal High Court in Abuja where he went to cover and monitor the trial of Nnamdi Kanu. They also seized his camera.

“Nigeria is under a full dictatorship. Buhari has murdered democracy. We demand his immediate release. It is not a crime for a citizen and a reporter to stand in a public place.”
