The Department of State Services (DSS) has reportedly arrested an organizer of the pro-democracy group Take-It-Back Movement (TIB) in Kano State simply identified as Zubair.
According to TIB, Zubair was taken into custody in the early hours of Thursday, with sources suggesting that his arrest is connected to a Facebook post critical of the government.
The group alleged that Zubair is being transferred to Abuja and has demanded his immediate and unconditional release, citing concerns over freedom of expression.
“TIB organizer in Kano, Zubair, was arrested by the DSS earlier today. The reason for his arrest remains unknown. But sources informed it was connected with a Facebook post critical of the government,” the group stated on its social media platforms.
