Operatives from the Department of State Services (DSS) carried out the arrest at Galadima’s home in Tudun Wada, Kaduna. The action has drawn attention due to its political undertones and the implications for freedom of expression.
Confirming the incident, a brother of Aisha Galadima told DAILY POST, "Aisha has just been arrested by DSS at her Tudun Wada residence in Kaduna.” The specifics of the Facebook post that led to her arrest were not disclosed, but it is understood that the content criticized the sitting governor's administration.

Legal and political analysts are closely monitoring the situation, as it may have broader implications for political expression in the state.
