A Magistrate’s Court in Kuje, Abuja, on Friday approved bail for publisher and activist Omoyele Sowore; Aloy Ejimakor, a member of the legal team representing the imprisoned leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu; the IPOB leader’s sibling, Prince Emmanuel Kanu; and ten additional individuals, amounting to ₦500,000, with two sureties of equivalent value.

The media indicates that all thirteen defendants were apprehended and presented before the court for provoking public unrest and disrupting peace in relation to the FreeNnamdiKanuNow demonstration conducted on Monday, October 20, in Abuja.

While Ejimakor, Emmanuel, and the other ten defendants were detained during the protest and subsequently confined at the Kuje Correctional facility, Sowore was arrested on October 23 at the premises of the Federal High Court in Abuja after attending Kanu’s terrorism trial to express solidarity.
