Detained RevolutionNow Movement Co-Convener, Omoyele Sowore, has revealed that operatives of the Department of State Services, DSS, denied him access to telephone while granting arrested Boko Haram Boko Haram commanders permission to call their people while in custody.
Sowore, who is the Publisher of Sahara Reporters, made the disclosure when he appeared before a Federal High Court in Abuja on Monday.
The Federal Government re-arraigned Sowore for conspiracy to commit treason and insulting President Muhammadu Buhari.
According to Sowore: “I am not allowed to see sunshine. I have not been outside except today. I am happy people are staying strong.
“I have no doubt this will come to an end in favour of the Nigerian people. Whether you like it or not, the revolution will happen. It is only a matter of time. They gave me no access to telephone. No TV. No newspapers.
“What is interesting is that Boko Haram commanders who are engaged in high-level terrorism have access to telephone, TV and even cable in their cells. So you wonder which one is better: a freedom fighter or a terrorist.”
