A Magistrate’s Court sitting in Kuje, Abuja, on Friday granted bail to Human Rights Activist, Omoyele Sowore; a member of the legal team representing the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, Aloy Ejimakor; Kanu’s brother, Prince Emmanuel Kanu; and ten others.
The bail was granted in the sum of ₦500,000 each, with two sureties in like sum.
All thirteen defendants were earlier arrested and arraigned before the court for allegedly inciting public disturbance and breaching the peace during the #FreeNnamdiKanuNow protest held on Monday, October 20, in Abuja.
While Ejimakor, Emmanuel Kanu, and ten others were arrested during the protest and subsequently remanded at the Kuje Correctional Facility, Sowore was reportedly apprehended on October 23 at the premises of the Federal High Court in Abuja, where he had gone to show solidarity during Nnamdi Kanu’s terrorism trial.
