Court Grants Sowore Bail, Restricts Him From Travel, Speaking To Journalists

A federal high court in Abuja on Friday granted a N100 million bail to convener of #RevolutionNow Movement, Omoyele Sowore.

Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu who gave the bail, restricted him from travelling outside Abuja and speaking with journalists.

He noted that the charges against the defendants do not warrant death penalty, hence they can get bail.

Recall that Sowore was taken into the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) since August 3 when he was arrested in Lagos.

He was arraigned in court on charges of felony brought against him by the federal government.

On September 30, a court granted him bail but the DSS refused to release him while he was arraigned.
