Protest: 16-year-old UI student released after DSS arrest

Protest: 16-year-old UI student released after DSS arrest

Adeoluwa Igaga, a 16-year-old University of Ibadan student, has been released after being arrested by the Department of State Services (DSS) for discussing the #EndBadGovernance protest with his father in a phone call.

His father, Mike Igaga, confirmed the release on Sunday, attributing it to the intervention of the University of Ibadan authorities.

However, the DSS has mandated Adeoluwa to report back on Monday, indicating that the case is still ongoing.

“The DSS released him but said he should come back on Monday. This time, I am not sure the boy would go with the University of Ibadan Chief Security officer, they want him to come on his own. Imagine doing all this to a 16-year-old boy because of a phone conversation with his father,” Mike Igaga said.

The DSS arrested Adeoluwa, a 100-level Computer Science student, in connection with the upcoming #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protest. The university’s security unit handed Adeoluwa over to the secret police. As the son of Comrade Mike Igaga, former UI students’ union speaker, and cousin of the late NANS President Moses Oisakede, Adeoluwa’s family is speaking out against his unjust treatment.
