An Abuja Magistrate Court sitting in Wuse Zone 2, today ordered that Omoyele Sowore, the publisher of Sahara Reporters, and four others, who were involved in a protest in Abuja against bad governance on New Year’s Eve be remanded in Kuje Correctional Centre pending the hearing of their bail applications.
Their formal bail applications are slated to be heard tomorrow Tuesday January 5, 2021.
The accused were arraigned on three charges of criminal conspiracy, unlawful assembly, and attempting to incite others.
They, however, pleaded not guilty to the charges levelled against them.
