Detention and alleged mistreatment of P.M. News journalists
Amnesty International reported that editor-in-chief Bayo Onanuga was believed to be detained by Nigeria’s State Security Service and might have been ill-treated. Babafemi Ojudu had reportedly been released on 13 August and required hospital treatment after alleged ill-treatment. The incidents were believed to be connected with articles critical of the government.
