A Federal High Court in Abuja orders the arrest of Omoyele Sowore, an activist and presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), after he fails to attend his trial. According to reports, the court issues the order because Sowore does not show up for the scheduled proceedings. The case relates to a two-count cybercrime charge brought against him by the Department of State Services (DSS). Sources say the matter was at a stage where Sowore was expected to open his defence. Instead, his absence prompts the court to direct that he be arrested to ensure he appears before the court. The reports present the order as a procedural step following non-attendance rather than a determination on the merits of the cybercrime allegations. No additional details are provided in the accounts beyond the charges, the expected defence stage, and the arrest order linked to his failure to attend trial.
