Mr. Ibrahim Dan-Halilu, a former Politics Editor at Daily Trust newspaper, was arrested by the secret service over a facebook post he made allegedly “supporting” #RevolutionNow, a pressure group which hitherto agitated for a revolution in the country citing ‘abysmal governance and inept leadership’ by the political class.
PRNigeria, the quasi government information service reports that it was informed by an operative with the DSS that the erstwhile Daily Trust Editor was finally released in Kaduna at about 6pm on Friday, and has since been re-united with his family.
Mr. Dan-Halilu, after a preliminary investigation was released penultimate Wednesday, but was again re-arrested after the operatives of DSS in Kaduna received a marching directive from Abuja that he should be made to undergo further thorough investigation and ‘rigorous’ questioning.
A family source, who prefers to remain anonymous, confirmed that Dan-Halilu has been released and is happy to be re-united with his loved ones after a long while.
