The Court of Appeal in Abuja has fixed July 8 for the hearing of the appeal filed by Convener of Revolution Now, Omoyele Sowore, and his co-defendant, Adebayo Bakare, to challenge the bail conditions restricting their movements to Abuja and Osogbo.
The three-man panel led by Justice Abdul Aboki adjourned the proceedings on Wednesday to enable the Federal Government to file its respondent’s brief in response to the appeal.
Sowore and Bakare are being prosecuted before Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu of the Federal High Court in Abuja on treasonable felony charges.
They were charged following call last year for ‘RevolutionNow’ protests, which the prosecution alleged were aimed at toppling the regime of the President Muhammadu Buhari.
