Justice Mohammed Umar of the Federal High Court in Abuja issued the order on Monday, following the revocation of Sowore’s bail last week.

Justice Mohammed Umar of the Federal High Court in Abuja issued the order on Monday, following the revocation of Sowore’s bail last week.

Earlier, the court dismissed Sowore’s application seeking the recusal of the presiding judge in his trial over remarks in which he described President Bola Tinubu as a “criminal.”

Sowore has been standing trial on allegations brought by the Department of State Services (DSS) linked to those public statements, charges he has consistently denied.
