Sahara Reporters publisher, Omoyele Sowore on Tuesday appeared at the premises of a magistrate court sitting in Wuse Zone 2, Abuja with a supporter dressed like a native doctor.
Sowore is standing trial along with others over allegation of unlawful assembly and incitement, following a protest in the Abuja.
The publisher shared pictures of his arrival in court on Twitter with the title of Ola Rotimi’s ‘The Gods are Not to Blame’ as caption.
Court workers, journalists, policemen, and other visitors were surprised at the sight of the ‘native doctor’, with many deriding them.
It would be recalled that Sowore was arrested alongside four others on New Year’s Eve for organising a candlelight procession in Abuja.
The prosecution allege that the defendants called for a violent revolution against President Muhammadu Buhari.
