Nigeria SSS moves to suspend Sowore cyberstalking trial ahead of 2027 elections
Premium Times NigeriaLO·NG·2 days ago
Nigeria's State Security Service (SSS) has moved to suspend the cyberstalking trial of activist Omoyele Sowore, citing international conventions Nigeria is a signatory to. The move marks a potential shift in the government's handling of high-profile dissidents, though the specific legal basis and implications remain unclear. This development could signal a de-escalation in the government's pursuit of Sowore, but the trial's suspension is not yet confirmed.
