A magistrate court in Abuja has granted bail to Omoyele Sowore, the human rights activist and publisher.

Also released on bail were Aloy Ejimakor, a former counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, and 11 other individuals.

Sowore was arrested by the police on Thursday shortly after leaving the Federal High Court in Abuja, for allegedly leading the #FreeNnamdiKanu protest.

Earlier on Tuesday, the same court had remanded Ejimakor and 11 others on charges of “inciting public disturbance” during the protest.
