A Thread!

#FreeSowore #FreeSoworeNow
The Judge is on seat now and The case is been called now. According to the court, the case is between them and the Commissioner of Police. JCA Idachaba is the lawyer heading the FCT command prosecution team with Adama Musa and DJ Emenike.
GOA Gule stood up that he is representing Sowore and the other comrades but Sowore told the Judge he is not aware of this lawyer except Femi Falana & his chambers. Sowore went further to say his lawyers have not been notified as he was not given the chance to call his lawyers

DO NOT BE MISLED.

A THREAD!

It is annoying to see some people concoct excuses for the SSS despite the fact the SSS is yet to make a public statement on their naked, reckless and irresponsible actions at the Federal High Court in Abuja on Friday. /1

#SoworeInDanger #FreeSowore
Why not wait for the SSS to tell us their usual fictional stories before you begin to masturbate in their defence?

Those talking about Sowore "breaching" his bail conditions are either ignorant or simply being mischievous. The SSS has no authority over Sowore's bail. /2
Let's assume that Sowore was seen in Lagos in defiance of his bail condition which has restricted him to Abuja, the SSS cannot arrest or detain him.

They can only go back to the court and complain by way of an application for the revocation of his bail. Sowore will be heard. /3

Since our Shepard is a Muslim, let me come from the perspective of Islam. Allah said in Surat An-Nisa “O ye who believe, stand firm for justice even against your own selves”. Islam is a religion of peace, equity and fairness. It shies away from oppression and contempt.
In 2015, a certain coup and counter coup emperor promised about 200 million people that he was a reformed democrat and would uphold the trust and mandate, rule of law and end impunity in a country led astray by his like minds.

The prosecution has taken responsibility for just sending documents to Sowore's counsel yesterday.
As such, if the case is adjourned, it solely the prosecution's fault and the judge could award costs.
#FreeSowore
The prosecution tried to say that it's not a requirement by the Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA) but Justice Ojukwu reminded him that the defence asked for it on Nov 6th & the court-approved so why did they just send it yesterday?

The SSS is sitting on appeal over Sowore's bail by asking us to produce his sureties. The sureties have no business with the SSS. They're only answerable to the court; not a lawless agency. The court has already verified them. SSS should stop this thuggish behaviour. #FreeSowore
Asking Sowore to present his sureties has no basis in law, and I will like any lawyer in this country to tell me under what law the SSS is making this demand. Is the SSS saying that it can only release Sowore on administrative bail when the court has already ordered his release?
We're not going to bow to executive dictatorship. It is the contemptuous for the SSS to ask sureties that have already been verified by the Federal High Court to submit themselves again to its own verification. Nigerians should totally disregard the arrogant statement of the SSS.
