Olawale Bakare, the Convener of #RevolutionNow in Osun State, has been rearrested by operatives of the State Security Services,(SSS) in Osogbo, the Osun State capital.
In what became global awareness last year, a human rights activist, pro-democracy campaigner, and former presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, on August 4, 2019, staged a protest in Lagos, Abuja, Osun and other parts of the country which led to his arrest and detention.

Bakare, in the same period, was also arrested in Osogbo and arraigned alongside Sowore.
Olawale, on Wednesday with members of the #RevolutionNow, converged at the popular Olaiya junction in Osogbo to stage a protest against bad governance, lack of infrastructure, extra-judicial activities, among others.
The protesters had addressed the police officers at the scene on their mission.
A yet-to-be-identified member of the #RevolutionNow while addressing security agents and onlookers was abruptly arrested by DSS. Bakare and two others were also arrested, while others fled the scene.
