The Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered activist and AAC presidential candidate Omoyele Sowore remanded at Kuje Correctional Centre pending a ruling on his bail.
Justice Mohammed Umar made the order Monday after Sowore failed to appear in court on June 16.
The judge had revoked his bail and issued a bench warrant for his arrest. 
—Motion for stay filed—
Sowore’s new counsel, Adeyinka Olumide-Fusika, has now filed a motion seeking to stay the court’s earlier decision.
Justice Umar adjourned the matter to June 24 to hear the application.
Sowore arrived in court Monday with supporters, some carrying placards.
He’s being prosecuted by the DSS over X and Facebook posts where he allegedly called President Bola Tinubu “a criminal”.
He denies the allegations.
The DSS was represented by Akinkolu Kehinde, SAN, who made the oral application for the bench warrant on June 16.
