First time I will support a protest

Someone used pen and paper to write against you

Why don’t you use that same pen and paper to defend yourself and all the allegations

Instead, you go around criminal detaining him

How many corrupt politicians have been detained in such manner before

How is democracy going to thrive if you don’t have freedom of speech

There is no smoke without fire, it’s possible Afe Babalola was an extremely corrupt lawyer who received kickbacks and contracts illegally through govt influence

His university costs billions almost the same on par with universities built with fraudulent pastors who milk thier congregation for money such as bishop oyedepo and the rest

It is time we all begin to condemn the weaponization of protests by Omoyele Sowore.

We must not sit idly and be selective when it comes to issues bordering on national security.

Mr Dele Farotimi not only made some damning allegations against Afe Babalola SAN in a book, he also made same in a press conference.

According to Afe Babalola's petition against Dele Farotimi, he petitioned that Dele Farotimi alleged as follows:



What has been established?

1. Dele Farotimi himself admitted there was a bench warrant issued against him to appear in Ekiti State to answer to the summons. wWhy didn't he honour the invitations? He claimed he committed the crime in Lagos and saw no reason to be called to Ekiti. Which law school did he even attend?

2. Instead of attending to the warrants, Dele Farotimi rushed to do a press conference to make claims that Afe Babalola was using the judiciary to bully him. No one questioned his accusations; they just believed him, because in their eyes, he could do no wrong.

3. If there is a bench warrant, how is it illegal? Can it be vacated? How? If yes, why didn't he seek a superior court order to vacate it?

4. Sahara Reporters and People's Gazette are being used to villify Afe Babalola to the effect that they even lied that King's College was considering their relationship with Afe Babalola. I think they should be added to the law suit.

5. Some people do not understand that human rights activism is not a license to bully those they don't like. Many of the latter-day human rights so-called activists are using their voice to terrorize and destroy others. There must be accountability for things said.

What we see is that there is unjustified anger by a certain mob against Afe Babalola, which we consider unfair. Dele Farotimi made some allegations against Afe Babalola and the Supreme Court as well as Justices of the Supreme Court, including Justice Bode Rhodes-Vivour. It is incumbent upon Dele Farotimi to prove those allegations so that if anyone is corrupting our Supreme Court, the person is identified and EFCC steps in, and all judges involved are punished. Otherwise, let the law be applied on such if a case of defamation is established. It is also a matter that borders on national security if our Supreme Court is said to be corruptible and corrupted. If justices were compromised, the sensible thing to do would be to submit a petition to the NJC. If that was not done, then it amounts to malice to rush to write a book without substantiating such accusations. I urge the DSS to invite Dele Farotimi to come and give explanations on what he knows about corruption in the judiciary.

As for Afe Bababola, do not bow to the pressure of the mob. The name you have built for yourself and your children is being rubbished. Deploy every legal arsenal you have to ensure that Dele Farotimi proves everything he accused you of.

I'd also call upon the young ones who join protests senselessly. Omoyele Sowore is a failed politician who uses protests to advance his failed political ambitions. He misled some of our young ones to riots last August. Remember that some of them died. Has he visited their families? Do not allow yourself to be a weapon in the hands of a failed revolution monger, please.

The judiciary is really taking Nigerians for granted. Those who make peaceful revolution impossible are also making violent revolution inevitable.

oluseyiforjesus:
I wonder y he didn't come n contest for governor in Ondo state, youth could hv voted for him

OsunOriginal:


What do you mean by weaponization of protests? Don't we all know how defamation issues are usually handled? Why should we condone rascality by the powerful people using the institutions of government to harass other citizens? Exactly what Farotimi talked about in his book is what we are seeing now. Can we therefore say he libeled or slandered someone? He said the simple truth about those involved.

TimiofAbuja:
Sowore clout chaser.

Snake001:
Go on as long as it's going to be a peaceful protest.

But please don't just allow B*afrans to join you in the protest.

We all know anything they are involved in must lead to violence, crime, can*ibalism & anarchy

Lifestone:

How? The was charge properly according to Nigeria law, what is the problem with Judiciary here?

Lifestone:

So you are going to tell Afe how to seek redress for the injury he suffered. The law permit him to charge Dele criminally, we should respect his choice.

The candidate both legal pugilists supported took sides with one of them quickly because the mob supporting him took that side.

Okoroawusa:
Let the judiciary do its job, please. This is a case between two Nigerians more so legal practitioners.
All these intimidation of the judiciary will not help Farotimi's case unless you, Sowore, wants to you the matter to trend as usual.

Moneyboyz:
Peter Obi does not have the balls to speak against the government and call for his release. This man was a supporter of his.
That butch ass nigha just lost my respect.

OsunOriginal:


What injury did he suffer? In which court was it decided that he suffered injury? Claiming to have suffered injury is different from having actually suffered injury. Farotimi said the truth about the man and the way he was arrested and remanded corroborated everything he said in the book. In a just society, which is what we want, he hasn't slandered or libeled anybody - he said the truth about them. Afebabalola can write his own book to defend himself.

The problem is that it's a bailable offence but he's being denied bail probably because of the personality involved or because he accused the Supreme Court of being corrupt.
