President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has ordered the immediate release of all the minors who were arraigned last Friday in connection to the #EndBadGovernance protests, which were held in August
The minors, who were arrested in August, faced prolonged detention in conditions that have sparked both domestic and international concern.
The court had earlier granted N10 million to each of the children.
Following their arraignment on Friday, where one of the children slumped in court, disrupting the session, calls came in from different parts of the nation, demanding the release of the minors.
