The protest was tagged 'RevolutionNow' The DSS accused the Sahara Reporters founder of plotting with foreign interests to overthrow the Buhari government that was re-elected in February. Despite court orders to release Sowore, the DSS failed to obey, offering up many frivolous excuses until today after they were given a 24 hour ultimatum by a Court to release the Publisher.
