Release Sowore Or Go To Jail, Federal High Court Tell DSS DG by Ohammadike: 2:33pm On Sep 26, 2019
The Federal High Court, Abuja, has threatened to jail the Director-General of the Department of State Services, Yusuf Bichi, over his refusal to release pro-democracy campaigner and Publisher of Sahara Reporters, Omoyele Sowore.

In a “notice of disobedience to order of court” issued by the court on Thursday and addressed to the DSS DG, the Federal High Court directed the boss of the secret police to comply with its directive or face grave consequences, which includes “commitment to prison”.

Sowore has remained in detention more than 24 hours after meeting his bail condition as set by Justice Taiwo Taiwo of the Federal High Court, Abuja, on Tuesday in a ruling.

He was arrested in Lagos on August 3, 2019 and had been slammed with a seven-count charge bordering on treasonable felony and insulting President Muhammadu Buhari.

More to come...

If only the letter could be directed to the PERSON from whom the Director takes order from.

A wilful disregard for court order should be discouraged by all irrespective of affiliation.

Oya CJN come preach your gospel to Buhari and DSS....
Mr Muhammad said the rule of law which is the bastion of every democracy across the world will be strictly observed.“The rule of law must be observed in all our dealings and we must impress it on the governments at all levels to actively toe the path.

“The right of every citizen against any form of oppression and impunity must be jealously guarded and protected with the legal tools at our disposal.“All binding court orders must be obeyed.

“Nobody, irrespective of his or her position, will be allowed to toy with court judgments,” he said.

Those hailing Sowore as a national activist who fought Abacha's evil military regime should know that those who fought military rule, only to support the election of a coup plotter have rubbished their resume'.

The order by the high court will only be obeyed in a normal situation.
With buhari in power we are in an abnormal situation even Chief justice Tanko is just a ceremonial head of the judiciary.

Nice one from the judge
nothing will happen. The order is from Northerners and Buhari's circle.

I was on Twitter few days ago when one authoritatively said Sowore is in it for a long distance race... He boasted that any protest will be matched by a counter protest up North.

For a low Northern citizen to be so confident should tell you what is in stock.

Will South West stand by and watch their own son be treated like this when Buhari has been covering and protecting his own people, including fraud like Maina, killers like Fulani Herdsman? Oh, I forgot, they want presidency. The joke is in you all.
