Omoyele Sowore, a presidential candidate for the African Action Congress (AAC), has declared that the Nigerian revolution would be unstoppable.
Authorities have long wanted Sowore’s passport, he said immediately after an Abuja Federal High Court granted him N200 million bail.
Once the human rights campaigner has worked out the details of his release, he will be sent back to Kuje Correctional Centre.
Justice Mohammed Umar granted Sowore bail, but only under strict terms. These include posting bond with two sureties—one from his native community and one from Abuja—and surrendering his international passport. This information was first published by footynaija
After his arraignment and prosecution on charges of allegedly referring to President Bola Tinubu as a criminal, the activist has been in custody since June 22, 2026.
Nothing on this planet can halt this movement. They disregarded our warnings. A bail of N200 million was issued to me. My passport has always been a target for them. “We will cross that bridge when we get there,” he declared.
