Bristol Issac Tamunobifiri, popularly known by his X name PIDOM Nigeria, has been granted bail.

PIDOM was arraigned on Friday, September 27, on a nine-count charge filed against him by the Inspector-General of Police at the Federal High Court in Abuja.

Adejobi said PIDOM was apprehended in connection with “criminal conspiracy, offences against the Official Secrets Act, leakage of classified restricted documents, acts likely to cause a breach of the public peace, sedition, fraud, and tax evasion”.

In an update on Friday, September 27, rights activist and convener of the #RevolutionNow movement, Omoyele Sowore, tweeted: “Isaac Bristol granted Bail!  @PIDOMNIGERIA #FREEPIDOMNIGERIANOW”
