Sowore arrives court from Kuje prison

The 2027 presidential candidate of African Action Congress, AAC, has arrived at the Federal High Court in Abuja as his trial continues.

The activist, who is also the publisher of Sahara Reporters, was brought to the court from the Kuje correctional centre where is being remanded.

Recall that Justice Mohammed Garba Umar, Monday ordered Sowore to be kept in prison pending the hearing and determination of his motion for stay of the order for revocation of his bail and bench warrant. 

He was immediately picked up by operatives of the Department of State Services, DSS who handed him over to prison officials.

Arriving at the court on Wednesday, Sowore could be seen smiling during conversation with some lawyers.

Several activists and his supporters are currently at the court premises waiting for the next move.

DAILY POST reports that the DSS is prosecuting Sowore for allegedly making false claims against the person of President Bola Tinubu by referring to him as “a criminal” in a post he made on his “X” and Facebook accounts.
