Minors freed as court strikes out suit against 119 #EndBadGovernance protesters

A federal high court in Abuja has struck out the suit
against 119 protesters charged over the nationwide #EndBadGovernance protest.

 

Obiora Egwuatu, the presiding judge, struck out the case
following an application by M.D Abubakar, counsel to the attorney-general of
the federation (AGF).

 

Abubakar had applied to take over and discontinue the suit.

 

At the session on Tuesday, Abubakar prayed the court to
allow the AGF take over the charge.

 

The development comes just hours after President Bola Tinubu
directed the attorney-general and law enforcement to release all minors
detained over the protest.

 

At the time of reporting, all the minors have been freed.
