Sowore: House of Reps reacts to reported court invasion by DSS
The House of Representatives is to investigate operatives of the Department of State Service (DSS) following the manner an activist, Omoyele Sowore, was re-arrested at the premises of a Federal High Court in Abuja.
Channels TV reports that the House on Tuesday, December 10, mandated its committees to investigate the circumstances surrounding the re-arrest of Sowore after the minority leader, Ndudi Elumelu, raised the matter during plenary.
The lawmaker faulted the reported action of the DSS as an abuse on the sanctity of the courtroom. He said the invasion of the courtroom by DSS operatives can be seen as one arm of government attempting to overpower another.
