The hearing of the trial of The Convener of #RevolutionNow movement, Omoyele Sowore, and his co-defendant, Olawale Bakare, have resumed today at the Federal High Court in Abuja.
The duo are being tried before Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu over Allegations of treason, money laundering among others.
On March 5, the government had filed a motion on notice praying the court to grant an order excluding persons other than lawyers and accredited members of the press from witnessing the proceedings.
It also sought an order to clear the court whenever the prosecution witnesses were testifying, such that only the trial judge, parties and legal representatives, as well as accredited members of the press, would be able to see them.
The prosecution had also asked for an order that the real names and addresses of the prosecution witnesses in the proceedings should not be disclosed.
Meanwhile, both defendants have pleaded not guilty to the charges leveled against them by the federal government.
