The court set bail in the sum of ₦500,000 with two sureties in like sum for each defendant.
All thirteen individuals were arraigned for inciting public disturbance and breach of peace. The charges are connected to a #FreeNnamdiKanuNow protest held in Abuja on Monday, October 20.
According to PUNCH Online, Ejimakor, Prince Emmanuel, and the ten other defendants were arrested during that protest and subsequently remanded at the Kuje Correctional facility.
Sowore was arrested separately on October 23 at the Federal High Court premises, where he had attended Nnamdi Kanu’s terrorism trial to show solidarity.
