The two men were rearrested by operatives of the secret police on Friday hours after they were released on bail on Thursday evening.
Sowore and Bakare were released after Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu gave DSS a 24-hour ultimatum to obey a court order backing their release.
Sowore was re-arrested following an earlier attempt by DSS operatives to arrest him inside the courtroom of a Federal High Court in Abuja.
The re-arrest attempt turned rowdy inside the courtroom as Sowore’s supporters, legal team shielded him from the DSS operatives.
After a stand-still that lasted over three hours inside the courtroom, Sowore’s lawyer, Mr Femi Falana insisted that the arrest should be effected outside the court premises.
Lawyer to the activists, Femi Falana (SAN), confirmed the development, saying that they had not been furnished with the new charges the DSS had brought against Sowore and Bakare.
