DSS Opposes Sowore’s Bid to Subpoena Counsel in Alleged Cyberbullying Trial

The Department of State Services (DSS) has opposed the bid by activist and African Action Congress presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, to subpoena its counsel in an alleged cyberbullying trial.

The Department of State Services (DSS) has taken a stance against activist and African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, in a twist to the ongoing alleged cyberbullying trial. According to THISDAYLIVE, the DSS described Sowore’s bid to subpoena its lawyer as a delay tactic. This development was disclosed on Tuesday, November 3rd, during a hearing at the Federal High Court in Abuja. The trial, which stems from accusations of cyberbullying, has been a topic of intense interest among Nigerians, particularly given Sowore’s high-profile status as a social activist and presidential candidate. The DSS has not commented on when the facility began operating, but the trial is set to continue with a ruling scheduled for November 9th, as reported by Tribune Online. It remains unclear how this latest development will impact the course of the trial, but it is certain that the proceedings are drawing attention from both the public and the media.
