BREAKING: Police rearrest Sowore after court bail

Human rights activist and #FreeNnamdiKanuNow campaigner, Omoyele Sowore, has been re-arrested by the Nigerian Police shortly after his court appearance at the Kuje Magistrate Court on Friday.

Sowore, alongside Nnamdi Kanu’s brother, Prince Emmanuel Kanu, a former member of Kanu’s legal team, and ten others, had earlier met their bail conditions.

The court granted them bail in the sum of ?500,000 each, with two sureties residing in the Federal Capital Territory and possessing valid identification and three years of tax clearance.

Despite fulfilling the bail conditions, only Sowore was reportedly picked up and whisked away by police officers to the Kuje Prison shortly after the proceedings.

He is expected to be arraigned on Monday, October 27, on a fresh charge related to his claim that President Bola Tinubu is a criminal. (Channels)
