Omoyele Sowore, the presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, labeled President Bola Tinubu a failed traitor to Nigerians after his release from Kuje prison. Sowore had been temporarily remanded by an Abuja Federal High Court, which granted him bail set at N200 million.

The Federal High Court in Abuja has scheduled a ruling for June 30 on a motion filed by Omoyele Sowore, the presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), regarding the revocation of his bail. As a result, Sowore will remain in custody until that date.

Former presidential candidate Peter Obi has raised alarms regarding the remand of activist and publisher Omoyele Sowore, labeling it a threat to Nigeria's democracy. His comments came after a ruling by the Federal High Court in Abuja, where Justice Mohammed Umar ordered Sowore's remand in Kuje Prison pending further proceedings.

The Centre for Public Integrity has criticized Omoyele Sowore for his remarks against the Department of State Services (DSS), highlighting ongoing reforms within the agency. The group recalled Sowore's previous detention and questioned his political motives in making such statements, particularly regarding his comments on Kuje prison, which they assert is not a hotel.

The Director General of the Department of State Services (DSS) has initiated an investigation into the actions of its operatives during an incident involving Omoyele Sowore at the Federal High Court in Abuja. This follows the release of a video on social media showing armed DSS officials in a confrontation with Sowore on Tuesday.

The Kwankwasiyya Movement has expressed its commitment to pursuing legal action to protect its leader, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, against what it calls false and defamatory claims. In a statement released to the Daily Post, spokesperson Habeeb Sale Mohammed emphasized the importance of democratic engagement while asserting that criticism must not cross into defamation.
