SERAP has demanded the immediate release of Foundation for Investigative Journalism reporter Daniel Ojukwu, who is currently detained at the Kuje Correctional Centre in Abuja. The organization, in a statement shared on its X account, urged President Bola Tinubu and the Attorney General of the Federation, Lateef Fagbemi, to end the prosecution of Ojukwu and FIJ founder Fisayo Soyombo over investigative reports concerning alleged expenditure of public funds by the Office of the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Sustainable Development Goals.
SERAP described Ojukwu's detention as a threat to journalists reporting on alleged corruption and the management of public funds.
