The federal government will
arraign Omoyele Sowore, convener of #RevolutionNow movement, before a federal
high court in Abuja on Monday.
Sowore’s case is said to have
been assigned to Ijeoma Ojukwu,a judge of the high court.
He is facing a seven-count charge
of cyber-stalking, treasonable felony and money laundering.
Taiwo Taiwo, a judge of the
federal high court, had granted Sowore bail, but the Department of State
Services (DSS), which is holding him, is yet to comply with the order.
Femi Falana, Sowore’s counsel,
accused the federal government of putting pressure on the court to assign his
client’s case for arraignment instead of releasing him.
“However, in a desperate bid to
divert public attention from the contemptuous conduct of the SSS the federal
government has hurriedly pressurised the federal high court to assign the case
for the arraignment of Mr. Sowore,” he said.
