Former presidential candidate and activist, Omoyele Sowore, has arrived at the Federal High Court In Abuja on Thursday for the court’s ruling on his bail application.
The court, on Wednesday, adjourned to Thursday for its ruling on the bail application filed by Sowore who is facing 17 counts of cybercrime charges.
Justice Musa Liman made the decision after hearing arguments from Sowore’s counsel, Marshal Abubakar, and the prosecution counsel for the Nigerian Police Force, Udey Jonathan.

Sowore pleaded not guilty to all 17 counts when they were read to him.
In the charge, the activist was accused of using his X handle, ‘Omoyele Sowore,’ to post a tweet against the Inspector General of Police, calling him “illegal IGP Kayode Egbetokun.”
The police alleged that the statement was false and intended to incite a breakdown of law and order.
