Sowore, Bakare rearraigned as FG pays N.2m fine

The Federal Government on Thursday re-arraigned Sahara Reporters publisher, Omoyele Sowore, and his co-defendant, Olawale Bakare, on amended charges of treasonable felony.

The prosecution accused them of organising a protest tagged #RevolutionNow aimed at toppling the regime of the President, Muhammadu Buhari

The amendment of the charges reduced the original seven counts to two.

Charges of money laundering and cyberstalking Buhari by abusing him contained in the old charges have been removed in the newly filed charges.

Both Sowore and Bakare again pleaded not guilty to the two counts of conspiracy and treasonable felony.
