Following a court order, the Department of State Services has produced aides of Sunday Igboho they arrested on July 1 before the Federal High Court in Abuja.
The aides were presented before the court on Monday.
They were arrested when DSS officials raided Igboho’s home on July 1, but have sued on grounds that their fundamental human rights were being infringed on.
A lawyer to the arrested aides, Pelumi Olajenbesi, sued the DSS, claiming that his clients have remained underground for weeks.
Ruling on the suit, Justice Obiora Egwuatu had ordered the DSS to produce the 12 aides on July 29.
But on court day, the DSS failed to honour the directive.
The judge issued another order and adjourned the case to August 2.
