The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has been thrown into confusion over the names of 8 aides of Sunday Igboho, presented by the Department of State Services (DSS).
Following the confusion, counsel to the applicants, Pelumi Olagbejensi applied for an adjournment to amend his processes to reflect their correct names.
Justice Obiora Egwuato granted Olagbenjesi leave to effect his corrections.
He therefore adjourned the suit brought by the 12 detained aides of the Yoruba Nation agitator, to August 4, 2021.
The DSS had produced 8 of the applicants against the 12 they arrested during their July, 1 raid on Igboho’s house.
Before the hearing, operatives of the secret police, had tried to restrict journalists access into the court room as they confiscated some of the journalists gadgets.
The 12 arrested persons are; Abdulateef Ofeyagbe, Amoda Babatunde, Tajudeen Erinoyen, Diakola Ademola, Abideen Shittu, Jamiu Noah, Ayobami Donald, Adelabe Usman, Oluwapelimi Kunle, Raji Kazeem, Taiwo Opeyemi and Bamidele Sunday.
