The State Security Service (SSS) yesterday detained the President of the National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN), James Olawale Ajani, over plans by the group to protest the proposed removal of oil subsidy by the Federal Government.
Ajani arrived the Abuja office of the SSS by noon and was questioned over tomorrow’s protest against subsidy removal. NYCN Programme Officer Comrade Success Olayemi confirmed the detention of Ajani, saying Nigerian youths would still go ahead with the protest. Olayemi said he deliberately accompanied Ajani to the SSS office but decided to stay within the premises since they had envisaged that he might be detained.
