DSS Arrests Ex-Daily Trust Editor Over Facebook Post Endorsing #RevolutionNow Protest | Sahara Reporters

Operatives of the Department of State Services have arrested Dan-Halilu, a former Politics Editor at Daily Trust newspaper, for endorsing the #RevolutionNow protest.

“Somebody asked me why we need a revolution now, this was my reply: The aim of the revolution is to challenge the uncommon hardship why we have 16m children on the street; challenge why we have become the poverty capital of the world; challenge why we have 20 persons with corrupt cases as federal legislators and would-be ministers.

“We are revolting against the continuing killings that have left 20,000 Nigerians dead while those in an office move around under state-paid security and do nothing. We are revolting against this because over a thousand Nigerians soldiers killed by Boko Haram have been secretly buried without identifiable graves, dignity or honour. $16m was purportedly spent on mosquito nets but our children die daily from malaria. $320m Abacha loot was purportedly distributed to the poor.

RevolutionNow: Frank challenges DSS to name sponsorsHis name will not be there because he doesn't have what it takes so why the worry? He should also ask Ologbodinyan the benefits of this type of challenges because when names are released it is always regret for making the call. Childish. In the least. This is how national security issues are handled? The job of journalists is to inform and educate the public.
