According to his lawyers, Adeyanju was granted bail on Monday morning, with a condition that he must provide sureties and N500,000.
Theophilus Agada, an associate of Mr. Adeyanju said the activist would meet the bail requirements today.
“He was asked to provide a senior civil servant in Kano State, and two pieces of land with N500,000,” Mr Agada said. “We are confident that this requirement would be met and he’ll be released today.
