PICTORIAL: SOWORE JOINS ‘EGBETOKUN MUST GO’ PROTESTERS OUTSIDE ABUJA COURT
Former presidential candidate and activist, Omoyele Sowore, was seen on Thursday among protesters outside the Federal High Court in Abuja.
Justice Musa Suleiman Liman of the Federal High Court in Abuja granted Sowore bail in the sum of N10 million, with one surety of the same amount.
Sowore was also instructed to deposit his international passport with the court and was given 24 hours to meet the bail conditions, or else he would be remanded in police custody.
In a Facebook post, Sowore commented on the bail, saying, “They granted the ‘bail,’ but I am not going to be bailed out by a corrupt civil servant at level 17 or 16; they got the memo and took the condition off their table. Even then, they still targeted my international passport, but that too they will never have!”
The accompanying pictures and video showed that Sowore briefly joined the demonstrators, singing and holding a “Egbetokun Must Go” placard, before leaving.
