Recall that the Department of State Services, DSS, on August 3, 2019, arrested Sowore for calling for a revolution through a protest scheduled to hold on August 5. The protest was interpreted as an attempt to topple the Buhari led administration.
Justice Taiwo Taiwo in the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court granted the DSS permission to detain the activist in custody for 45 days and at its expiration, the Attorney General of the Federation filed a seven-count charge of treasonable felony, cyber crimes and money laundering against the activist.
