The continuation of trial of the Presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, in the defamation charges brought against him by the Department of State Service (DSS) was stalled on Monday. Two Senior Advocates of Nigeria, Adeyinka Olumide-Fusika and Akinlolu Kehinde, engaged in a heated argument when the proceedings began. Daily Trust reports that Sowore has been undergoing trial at a Federal High Court in Abuja over alleged cyberstalking against the President, Bola Tinubu. Following the heated argument and exchange of unpleasant words, Justice Mohammed Garba Umar intervened and said, “You cannot behave in my court in that manner. Without consulting the two lawyers, Justice Umar shifted the matter to 28 September 2026 for continuation of the defence.
