Lead counsel to Omoyele Sowore, Mr Olumide Fusika, has asked the Department of State Services (DSS) to withdraw the cyberbullying charge against his client or transfer the case to the Attorney-General of the Federation. Fusika made the demand on Monday while reacting to the DSS announcement that it had suspended the prosecution of Sowore until after the 2027 presidential election. The DSS Director-General, Tosin Ajayi, had announced the suspension on Sunday. Fusika faulted the manner of the announcement, saying the defence team was not formally informed before the statement was released.
