The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi (SAN), has finalized the required documentation to release individuals detained in connection with the #EndBadGovernance protests, including minors charged with treason.
According to sources, these detainees are set to be freed at the Federal High Court in Abuja on Tuesday.
SaharaReporters confirmed on Monday night that officials, including the Attorney General, Inspector General of Police, and representatives from the Nigerian Correctional Service, have completed plans to present the detainees before Justice Obiora Egwuatu, who is expected to oversee the withdrawal of the charges.
“Arrangements have been made for the release of #EndBadGovernance detainees at the Federal High Court tomorrow (Tuesday),” a source informed SaharaReporters. 
The decision follows a directive issued by President Bola Tinubu on Monday, mandating the release of detained minors, whose arraignment at the Federal High Court on November 1 sparked widespread national and international backlash.
Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, shared the update during an emergency press briefing at the Aso Rock Villa.
The release of these detainees is anticipated to ease tensions, as calls for compassion and adherence to legal standards regarding juvenile rights continue to gain momentum across the nation and beyond.
