Omoyele Sowore Regains Freedom After Four Days In Kuje Prison

-



Human Rights activist and former presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has been released from Kuje Prison, Abuja after fulfilling his bail conditions.

Sowore confirmed his release in a post on his verified X (formerly Twitter) handle on Monday, October 27, 2025.

He wrote, 

“HAPPENING NOW: Leaving Kuje Prison in Abuja after being detained there illegally for four days by @officialABAT illegal IGP, Kayode Egbetokun. #FreeNnamdiKanuNow.”

The activist, alongside Aloy Ejimakor, Special Counsel for the Indigenous People of Biafra leader, Nnamdi Kanu; Kanu’s younger brother, Emmanuel Kanu; and 11 other protesters, were arrested by operatives of the Nigeria Police Force last week during a #FreeNnamdiKanuNow demonstration in Abuja.

They were arraigned last Friday before a Magistrate Court in Kuje, Abuja, presided over by Magistrate Abubakar Sai’id, on charges of unlawful assembly and disturbance of public peace.

In his ruling, Magistrate Sai’id granted each of the 14 defendants bail in the sum of ₦500,000, with conditions including the presentation of a verified National Identification Number, submission of a three-year tax clearance certificate, and the deposit of their passports.

After meeting these conditions, Sowore and the other defendants were released from Kuje Prison on Monday.

Sowore’s arrest last Thursday occurred shortly after he left the Federal High Court in Abuja, where he had attended a court proceeding involving the IPOB leader.
