A Magistrate’s Court in Kuje, Abuja, on Friday, October 24, 2025, granted bail to prominent activist and publisher Omoyele Sowore, Aloy Ejimakor, a leading member of Nnamdi Kanu’s legal team, and Prince Emmanuel Kanu, the detained IPOB leader’s brother, alongside ten other defendants.
Thirteen individuals were apprehended and arraigned earlier this week on charges of inciting public disturbance and breach of peace, following their involvement in the recent #FreeNnamdiKanuNow protest in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
It was gathered that the court granted bail in the sum of N500,000 each.
The defendants are required to submit their passports, present a verified National Identification Number (NIN), and a three-year tax clearance certificate as part of the conditions.
Recall that Sowore was arrested by the police on Thursday, shortly after leaving the premises of the Federal High Court in Abuja.
The activist was arrested for leading the #FreeNnamdiKanu protest.
On Tuesday, the court remanded Ejimakor, and 11 others for “inciting public disturbance” during the protest.
