“The order of court has expired. It has not been renewed and cannot be renewed in view of the motion ex-parte earlier withdrawn,” the judge said.
“The liberty of all Nigerians high or low, poor or rich is guaranteed by the constitution. It’s for this end that I’m of the view that the defendant ought to be released forthwith,” Mr Taiwo said in a short ruling on Tuesday. The court took made the decision after taking judicial notice of the information stating that Mr Sowore’s investigation had been concluded.
Mr Sowore was arrested on August 3 for planning a nationwide protest, under the theme, #RevolutionNow. There have been growing calls for his release after the government filed charges of treason and money laundering against him.
Since MBuhari & elrufai did NOT obey Nigerian court order to release Shaykh Zakzaky, I doubt whether the GovNigeria will obey court order this time. FreeZakzaky FreeSowore FreeDadiyata
Good news!
Abeg have they released him now? I’m asking for an entire country
Buhire and his supporters will not die well
We dont have courts .....
Thank you my Lord, eseun baba, sowore na re ko ju bayi lo
Which court Is it the one that grant affidavit 🙄
Hmmmm
Watch the Presidency defile this order. CJN is a scam
we dnt hve freedom of speech in dis country anymore
Watch the DSS form in looking 👀
AAjiboro Finally!
Respect court order
KadariaAhmed Mr Revolution to be released
That's if the tyrant at the affairs of government will obey court order.
At last Tyranny is a crime against Humanity
Would they obey the ruling,,?
KadariaAhmed What's the correlation between granting a bail & immediate release? Who ordered for the immediate release? Where do we source for news now since you media houses have resolved to be feeding us with misinformation & lies?
Oga sowereo go and sit down u are not the only one that loss the election ah ah.
Yeahhhhhh! We go dey killi dem sha... Aaay lolzzzxx great news
The court has said BUT presidency have not SAID.... Ask El -zazaki and other if the court did not spoke .
Will they obey?😏
This is due process. Court ordered Sowere's detention, and ordered his release, but there was too much noise before today. It would be good to see NigeriaGov go with the RuleOfLaw, and FreeSoworeNow.
Court? Thought MBuhari controls all the arms in that country? And he said he insulted him. Has he finally got his senses back? Smh
But we have a government that doesn’t obey court orders except the ones in their favour🤦♂️
Like court orders are being followed or respected in this country
If Mallam Buhari will accept.
Better
The_Seeker76 He shouldn't have been arrested in the first place.
I hope this ruling does not go the way of dasuki and elzakzaky.
Hope this NigeriaGov under MBuhari will obey this court order o.
The victory is not ascertain if the FG fail to listen to court order 📑 and withdraw all charges against him
They should release the innocent man
Thank God that someone is sane in this country.
They won't still release him, this government don't care about what the court says.
They ve just made YeleSowore more popular ... God has a way of making wisdom of the proud turn to foolishness.. May God grant him the strength to continue the fight for it has just begun.
Demanding for good governance and accountability is a responsibility of all not just sowore's. Irrespective of tribe or political interest, our fights should be Nigeria first and so we should not let greed people destroy us all.
It is very unfortunate how we saw Sowore actions as personal and as such a child to caution. Sowore is very connected,rich and comfortable to take care of his and family needs, yet we saw his action as vindictive and personalized. No jobs No decent housing No healthy economy .
ayemojubar One the court will BADLY, and the next day they will Grant a popular ACTIVIST Free, so as to be in the free BOOK of internet warriors. We nor forget as una brothers/Colleagues take f..u..c..K up for presidential TRIBUNAL O.
This puts a splash d spat on the face of some. Unscrupulous elements in d society with belief that Buhari has the courts and indeed judges in his pockets. shame on them all.
Have you forgotten that the President has ear problem? He can't hear 😥
His incarceration is an aberration that shouldn't have been allowed in the first place. No matter what this repressive regime does to cage the voices of reason, compatriots who fight for the emancipation of the masses have their names written in our national history.
Finally I hope that he sue them for this.
'The court said Mr Sowore must deposit his international passport within 48 hours after his release and ordered that his lawyer, Femi Falana, should be responsible for producing him in court once he has been notified of the charge against him.'
Read beyond headlines.
'The court, however, asked him to deposit his international passport with it before he is released.'
Now the CJN must redeem his pledge to ensure that all court orders are obeyed under his watch. And by this pledge, Sowore you're released, in the name of the Chief Justice of Nigeria.
Hallelujah!
we are waiting to see if this court order will be obeyed. This government has gold medal in disobedience of court orders.
Let’s hope they obey.
Finally tinubu has plead on his behalf to let him go,next time u don't outshine ur matter first rule in 48 laws of power,only those with brain we know what exactly happen not ready to stress myself with usual issues
Dasuki has been in detention for the past 4yrs despite the release orders 4rm competent courts. So don't expect sowore to just go home 🏡 like that.
That is if Mr President will obey court order
He was granted bail not release.
DSS even had the guts to apply for extra 20 days? The question is what did you do with the 45days granted?
OK.
I will be surprised if this order is obeyed by the lawless government headed by the tyrant and his cabal.
naijama Disappointed.
Great. But he must deposit his passport within 48 hrs. Why must they always have impossible strings attached to every bail condition?
I have a feeling they wont honour it. We already know their precedent...
End of the matter.
Dictators don't respect court orders.
DSS releases and rearrests Sowore for insulting president Buhari’s wife which in Islamic law is an insult to the husband and by extension Nigeria which means treasonable felony. DSS oya credit my Barclay's
Good news
Let's see if they will obey.
I pray they release him as ordered
Good news for democracy 🙌
👏🏾 An independent judiciary is the bedrock of any functioning democracy. The non existence of which we have a classic banana republic.
Sowore is coming back to fight the government just watch and see
Victory for democracy!
You know how many times dem don release Zakzaaki and Dasuki on paper?
Court order’s the release of dasuki, Court order’s the release of elzakyzaky Who is now sowore DSS will obey court order. They should just scrap judiciary in Nigeria they are of no use.
Hopefully he doesn’t get arrested again on trumped up charges
Congratulations to YeleSowore ...I pray d man we all know who has an affidavit, will understand and obey this simple statement from the judiciary.
Did you just hear that?
The court has the order, the NigeriaGov has the obedience.
This will test the integrity if CJ Muhammed
Nice!
He will be teleased immediately since this government respects court orders
I won’t be surprised if he isn’t released because this current administration doesn’t respect court orders.
Best news of our time
We are waiting, didn't obey previous orders before.
💪
One thing is for the court to order the release of OmoyeleSowere, another, is for the MBuhari led gov't to obey.
This is expected. Ofcourse the presidency is in New York. Its a PR thing.
Hope tyrantBuhari will obey the court ruling. Fingers crossed. Nigeriaisinadictatorship
It’s one thing for the court to ‘order’, quite another for the government to obey. I applaud the court but that said, I think the court should take the state to task - it is criminal to ‘arrest’ somebody only to ask for time to ‘investigate’ the person. But this is Nigeria...
Good news. Go and sin no more brethren
Will they obey?
Would this affidavit president obey court order?
I hope they obey court order this time
To Jesus be OUR Glory 🙌
It can't be true. A coup plotter and revolutionist? I cannot and will never believe this highly celebrated and reported crime went like that.
Great
I pray the affidavit man will obey the Court order ..
AmnestyNigeria ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Buhari won't Obey the Order
This is a good news
I support his release. But he must not go by the way of Revolution again! What we need in Nigeria is to rise up against poverty and this must be done in a matured way.
Will they?
Wow!
