The Federal Government has arraigned 10 #EndBadGovernance protesters arrested in Abuja, Kaduna, Kano, and Gombe before a federal high court in Abuja.
Charged with treasonable felony and a “plan to destabilise Nigeria”, the defendants were brought to the court amidst tight security on Monday.
While taking their pleas before Justice Emeka Nwite, the presiding judge, the defendants pleaded not guilty to the six counts filed against them.
The defendants are Michael Tobiloba Adaramoye (aka Lenin); Adeyemi Abiodun Abayomi (aka Yomi); Suleiman Yakubu; Comrade Opaluwa Eleojo Simeon; Angel Innocent; Buhari Lawal; Mosiu Sadiq; Bashir Bello (aka Murtala); Nuradeen Khamis; and Abdulsalam Zubairu.
The arrested protesters had faulted the court order that permitted their arrest and detention, telling President Bola Tinubu that he had no right to arrest them.
The protesters, in a suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/1233/2024, challenged the August 22, 2024, Federal High Court order issued by Justice Emeka Nwite that permitted the Inspector General of police to remand them for 60 days pending the conclusion of the investigation on their case.
