According to reports, Operatives of the Department of State Services disrupted the trial of Omoyele Sowore and Olawale Bakare on Friday morning, attempting to rearrest the two men and in the process chased away the presiding judge, Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu.
Sowore was released by the DSS on Thursday evening after the Federal High Court, Abuja, ordered his release within 24 hours, about four months after he was arrested.
Recall that he was arrested for organising the Revolution Now protest, which the DSS referred to as a treasonable offence.
Reacting to the report, Davido wrote:
“Justice slowly becoming a thing of the past n our dear country …. a kid somewhere in Nigeria, dreaming of becoming a lawyer and bettering the community would see this and start having doubts … just sad.”

Also responding to a follower’s opinion that Nigerian celebrities should wade into the issue, Davido said the situation of things in the country now requires everyone to be held responsible for their actions.
“Voice against gun lol ok … this country these days nah CARRY UR OWN I GO CARRY MY OWN” Davido said.
