When an old man is fighting his younger one, even if the old man is guilty, you still find a means of appeasing him. That's what Obi had done. It's a clear example of someone born in a decent, trained home. Baba should drop charges.

This guy is talking trash. The odds are stacked against Dele, if dem no beg Baba Afe the man will just end up in jail. One might not like what is happening but Dele goofed the moment he put that in his book, that right there is enough evidence to send him to sanko.
They are even planning more serious charges of disrepute against the Supreme Court of Nigeria and use that to out him from the Nigerian Bar so begging Baba is the right thing to do for now except Dele has hard evidence to prove his allegations to the very end.

Don't mind that idiot, his own time is fast approaching. This pompous slowpoke went to Ife during the last campaign complaining that Ooni of Ife kept him waiting.
Who the hell does he think he is? Like the Ooni doesn't have anything else to do than to entertain him?

Obi is simply a leader. He tried to mediate peace between the two brothers as a leader. Both Dele and Afe are brothers.

Obi goofed on this,that's why many of us don't see obi any different from all the other oppressors in the form of politicians......a phone call would have gotten is message across and the courts had already granted the accused bail.

Why did he have to visit farotimi,how many people languishing in various jails has he visited and saw to it that justice is served.....but no, that won't show him in the front of the cameras.....over Sabi!!

Another reason not to consider obi for president.

What Obi did is the right thing. Even if an elderly man is wrong, you still find a means of appeasin him for the old age's sake. Baba is a prominent man.

FYI, Dele isn't guilty oo. He's an experienced and super intelligent lawyer, cum human rights activist, mind you,he had enough evidence to nail baba, as he has also pleaded not guilty. Our judicial system is the most corrupt in the world. Let's just leave it at that.

Couldn't hace said it any better. Obi doesn't have principles. Why go and beg an oppressor to free tge oppressed? Farotimi is ready to fight, other human rights activitists are ready to fight but obi went to beg.
Not appropriate.

The moment that news broke, I specifically mentioned that Peter Obi should intervene because they are two influential people who believe in his presidency and endorsed it with their full chest. Una go wail tire!

You are a cluelessly naive olodo like that Pandora Bitter Obi who was doing photo-op instead of supporting the needlessly harassed Dele.

So clueless Obi was that he gifted T-Pain the ebilokan chance to worsen the shege he enthroned with Buhari in 2015.

jameshankss:
Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, has said he is sure the candidate of Labour Party (LP), Mr Peter Obi, would lose the 2023 presidential election. Soludo said he would not submit to the bullying of Obi’s supporters, who recently descended on him for addressing issues in the state.

The governor made the comments in a lengthy write-up personally authored, with the title, “History Beckons, and I Will Not Be Silent (Part 1).”

Soludo said Obi was inadvertently making the pathway to victory much easier for the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, and at the same time, toying with the destiny of millions of Ndigbo.

But the chief spokesperson for the Labour Party Presidential Campaign, Yunusa Tanko, accused Soludo of being sponsored by some unknown persons to weaken the base of the party in the South-east.

The former CBN governor had been under intense attack for close to a week for dismissing Obi’s investment in the state as amounting to nothing, during a television interview.

Soludo said in the write-up, “My attention has been drawn to some of the tirades on social media following my frank response during an interview on Channels TV regarding the ‘investments’ Mr. Peter Obi claimed to have made with Anambra State revenues.

“Sadly, several of the comments left the issue of the interview to probe or suggest motives, inferred from my response on ‘investment’ that I am opposed to Peter Obi’s ambition and, therefore, committed a ‘crime’ for which the punishment is internecine abuse and harassment, even to my family.

“Everyone knows that I don’t follow the winds or one to succumb to bullies, or shy away from a good fight especially, when weighty matters of principles and future of the people are involved.”

Soludo said he had urged Obi to return to his former party, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), to actualise his presidential bid. He added that he had always told the LP candidate to his face that he was not capable of winning the 2023 presidential election, especially, under LP, which had neither a councillor nor a local government chairman.

Soludo said Obi was not just his friend, but also his brother, but despite that, they have their political differences.

He stated, “For full disclosure, let me state that Peter Obi and I are not just friends, we call ourselves ‘brothers’. But we have political differences: he left APGA for PDP after his tenure as governor, while I have remained in APGA since 2013.

“During the last two governorship elections in Anambra in 2017 and 2021, he led the PDP campaigns but APGA won landslide in both elections. By the way, in 2016, he visited and proposed that I defect to PDP and contest the 2017 election against the incumbent Willie Obiano, but I declined.

“After my victory in November 2021, he called to congratulate me, as I did to him in 2010. That is the Anambra way: we fight fiercely during campaigns but share drinks at the next social events. After all, it was the Great Zik of Africa, who taught us that in politics, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies but only permanent interests.”

Arguing that Obi’s presidential bid would only work in favour of Tinubu, Soludo said, “Indeed, if I were Asiwaju Tinubu, I would even give Peter Obi money as someone heading one of the departments of his campaign, because Obi is making Tinubu’s pathway to victory much easier by indirectly pulling down PDP.”

Obi, according to Soludo, would only deplete the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pave the path for an APC victory.

He stated, “The current fleeting frenzy, if not checked, will cost Ndigbo dearly for years. The South-east has the lowest number of votes of any region, but it is also the only region where the presidential race might be a four-way race (it is a two-way race in the other five regions) thereby, ensuring that our votes won’t count in the making of the next president of Nigeria.

Farotimi is one of his fervent supporter, so he should let him rot in detention over what does not warrant such?

Are you the courts,is afe babalola the court.....this is very bad aesthetics for obi who has been lying about how he is different from the others.....that's him approving privilege to those who are the oppressors.....a phone call or a letter would have gotten his message across.....how many people languishing in various prisons without trial as he visited or seen to their release.....bloody hypocrite.

Afe Babalola was only playing Obasanjo's script to divide PDP vote and block Atiku's chance.

Just like he discarded PDP and Jonathan for Buhari despite knowing that the old soldier was clueless about the economy in 2015, so he doesn't want Atiku to outshine him in governance.

yaxeji:
In what is turning out to be a season of open letters, daughter of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Iyabo, has ruled out further communication with her father till death, describing him as a liar, manipulator, two-faced hypocrite determined to foist on President Goodluck Jonathan what no one would contemplate with him as president.

Senator Iyabo Obasanjo in a letter to her father accused him of having an egoistic craving for power and living a life where only men of low esteem and intellect thrive.

Why shouldnt he visit farotimi who is a friend and an adernt supporter? Jesus Christ is that how you people think? Seriously hate have done great damages to you folks sense of logical reasoning.
Peter Obi is unapologetic about this move he made in resolving the impasse between his two ardent supporters.

Am sure if he didnt visit Dele Farotimi, same lunatics will be here ranting how Peter Obi have dumped Dele Farotimi in his challenging moments.

Besides, this is not the first time Peter Obi is visiting people in prison. Go and verify.
