The Department of State Services (DSS) has initiated a five-count legal action against some social media companies at the Federal High Court in Abuja in the case involving human rights activist, Omoyele Sowore.
Naija News reports that the charges were initiated against social media platforms 𝕏 (Twitter), Meta (Facebook), over Sowore’s post against President Bola Tinubu.
The charge sheet states that Sowore is alleged to have used his official 𝕏 account and his Facebook page on August 25 and 26, 2025, to post comments labelling President Tinubu as a “criminal” and accusing him of dishonesty regarding corruption during an official visit to Brazil.
Court documents sighted on Tuesday revealed that the charges, marked FHC/ABJ/CR/484/2015, were instituted by the Federal Republic of Nigeria as complainant, with Sowore, 𝕏 Inc., and Meta Inc. listed as defendants.
