The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has fixed June 30, 2026, to deliver its ruling on an application filed by the presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, seeking to set aside an order revoking his bail.
Justice Mohammed Umar scheduled the ruling after hearing arguments on a motion for a stay of execution filed by Sowore's legal team.
During the proceedings, Sowore's counsel, Raphael Adakole, urged the court to grant the application seeking to suspend the enforcement of the bail revocation order pending the determination of the matter.
However, counsel to the Department of State Services (DSS), Akinkolu Kehinde (SAN), opposed the application and urged the court to dismiss the request.
Earlier, when the matter was called, Adakole informed the court that the case had been scheduled for the hearing of the application challenging the bail revocation order.
After listening to submissions from both parties, Justice Umar adjourned the matter until June 30, when the court will deliver its ruling on whether the bail revocation order should be stayed or vacated.
The outcome of the ruling is expected to determine the next phase of the legal proceedings involving the former presidential candidate.
