A Federal High Court in Abuja orders Nigerian activist and African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate Omoyele Sowore to be remanded in Kuje Prison as his case proceeds on alleged defamation of President Bola Tinubu. Multiple outlets report that the court’s decision is tied to cybercrime-related proceedings described as involving defamation. The court issues a short ruling directing that Sowore remain in custody while legal processes continue, including the hearing and determination of a motion seeking a stay of an order related to revocation and/or revocation proceedings. Reports state that Sowore is kept at the Kuje Correctional Centre/ Kuje Prison until the next scheduled legal date, with coverage citing June 24, 2026, as the time proceedings are expected to resume. The outlets describe Sowore as being held pending the hearing and determination of his related application and the continuation of the matter. The reports do not present any final outcome on the merits of the allegations, focusing instead on the court-ordered remand and the timing of the next court appearance.
