Former BBC Editor Adejuwon Soyinka Released After DSS Detention

PulseNets has confirmed the release of Adejuwon Soyinka, the ex-editor of BBC, who was detained by the Department of State Security Services (DSS) on Sunday morning.

Earlier reports from PulseNets indicated that Soyinka was taken into custody by DSS operatives at Murtala Mohammed International Airport in Lagos shortly after his arrival from London, United Kingdom.

The arrest of Soyinka ignited widespread alarm and criticism across Nigeria, with PulseNets observing a surge of Nigerians on social media platforms urgently calling for his immediate release.

The specific reasons behind Soyinka’s detention remain unclear. However, PulseNets highlights that his freedom was restored following the intervention of the International Press Institute (IPI) Nigeria, along with influential media executives and communication specialists.
