There was uproar at the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, when officials of teh Department of Security Service, DSS, restrained journalists and supporters of Omoyele Sowore from entering the courtroom on Wednesday as trial of Sowore resumed.

There was wild agitation by Sowore's supporters, questioning why the DSS should block sympathizers from entering the courtroom to observe the proceedings.
Operatives of the DSS stood their ground, but Sowore's supporters were not intimidated either, they were resilient.
