Hmmmmm2024:
Was he suppos to attach the evidence to the book or he is suppose to present them in court ?

Whichever he prefers since he's now in court. He will be in many courts over the next couple of months. I hope the stress of going forth and back doesn't kill the fuul

Good

ERockson:
You guys should stop harassing Prof Afe Babalola, you can't determine how he reacts to his personal matter, maybe you will know how it feels to be tarnished at the apex of ones existence when you reach 90years. Farotimi said they should all go to court and they are there,do what's the noise

He tire me o. This mumu even said that Dele would get only 2 years max if sentenced as if 1 month is not enough. Guilty verdict is all what matters unless he retract and recall his book and apologise

PrinzEleju:
Stupid Obidient.

So you expect Age Babalola to just siddon dey look? Tomorrow they will say silence means admittance .

The same mumu lawyer will be the first one to say it.

Jayhome24:
Which legacy

The one your dad can't have in a million Years

“I don’t want this to define him. This case should not be his legacy. If I get to the age of 80, if God preserves my life and I get to the age of 80 and 85, I’ll be circumspect. It is not every offense that I’ll use a sledgehammer, that I will invoke institutions of state no matter how offensive what said was.”

So, he should allow him to be without either proving his allegation of corruption against him or recall the books and taking it down online. Is that how this mumu would preserve his own legacy when he is accused of corruption?

Effiong said the offense of criminal defamation is not a serious offense. “I mean even if assuming you were to be convicted it’s not an offense that you will spend years in prison. One year, maybe two, so it’s not like a serious felony that you will spend 17 years so,” he said.

So what? If he is guilty and court say he should spend one month behind bars, so be it as long as it is justice. Did Afe Babalola tell this mumu that he wants Dele go away for 17 years? This guy is biased and has taken side with the suspect.

thesicilian:
I pity the family, but it's good for these politicians to feel what the general population is going through sometimes

It is good? Just for you to make a point? That's someone's mother, may be little kid or kids. That's not good

RIP. When they're told to stop filling up the political vacancies around their offices with their families and relatives, they would not listen.

Hahahaha! What's the percentage of agric ministry budget in this year budget and the one he's preparing for 2025? They normally budget like 1% of the total annual national budget on agriculture

Talkisneeded:
Soon it will spread to other cities...

God abeg,na die we dey...

I sell herbs tho

Lol. He's behind, other cities are already paying it. That's why he said that he didn't benefit from the last increment. I'm under Ibadan Disco Band A, we're currently getting 3.3 units for 1,000 naira on prepaid meters with no debts like mine. That's like N300 per unit. From 220 naira per unit announced by FG this year to N300 per unit without announcement (just done secretly)

brolinderick:
NERC will approve for them. My grouse with this NERC is that they're anti-people.
They want to inrease tarrifs. What about the supply of power they are giving to the people? Can they boldly come out to say they've been consistent with their services?

I'm on band A, sometimes we don't have power supply for over 24 hours, that's like more than a day. We're mostly getting below what they promised on daily basis and we're still on band A every month with 1k for 3.3 units now

haybhi1:
Rest. It's across board. Hostel fee for medical students at Unilorin was 40k two years ago, 55k last year, and now they hiked it to 108k, until the SU waded in to bring it to 100k.

It's the new reality, deal with it. Seize your fuss.

Shalom.Lol, see where y'all brought this—I'm supporting government. Lol, no. I'm being logical. Most of us Nigerians don't like the reality or logical situations. Do you think a fee of 100k can even run a school hostel successfully? Do you think hostel fee of ₦90, 55k, or so are sustainable? The fact they did it before and gave us almost everything for free doesn't mean that's the right way. I have a Ghanian friend in university of Ghana. In 2018, he asked me how much school fee we pay in 100L, I told him it was 27k (the fee at the time), he exclaimed, 'cos they were paying >₦400000(school fee at the time).

You want the best schools and equipment and you want all that for almost nothing. It's illogical. Education is not cheap! Check how much private universities in Nigeria charge for these things, while they still lack the degree of expertise irrespective. I don't want to talk about overseas universities' fees. In fact, it will interest you to know that most people who leave Nigeria for UK, do so to go study for MSc, yet they always have to sell off properties or set aside a humongous sum of money simply for that.

The excessive dependence on freebies is a poor social habit that a country should never be accustomed to. Unfortunately, Nigeria is found wanting and now it's unsustainable as the treasury bills have nearly been eroded from the subsidies the country has been responsible for over the years.

Freebies in Nigeria? You need to have your brain examined. Even in USA, they still temporary accommodations and free food for the homeless and unemployed, though it might be enough. Do we have such freebies in Nigeria? We provide our own water, security, electricity, etc

victornwaru:
Another FTC for me. At this point, I think I deserve a prize.
Meanwhile, the country has made a lot of people to indulge in crime. Blame Buhari, Tinubu and APC miscreants

Commit crime and start blaming Buhari/APC. By the time your sorry ass is sentenced, your sense will be back

This would be after they might have frustrated the hell out of her

Bluntemperor:
We pray Baba to withdraw the case, but the doubts is too loud,because it has to do with image damaging and destruction of personality,including that of the whole Judiciary- which is at stake!
Yoruba people love their names and respect -for Personalities and Values.
That is why you see Baba OBJ still bowing for those Oba,who are smaller and younger in age to him,on many occasions.
This is not about Politics but about Characters, attitudes and brought up and whom you are!
Check Farotimi in all his outbursts,he is too embittered and he just-dump the Judiciary into dustbin-as he is a lawyer but you can't destroy the foundations of your tenet and claim to be exercising right!
Nobody, including those living abroad ,will ever believed Nigeria or rely on our Judiciary again!
That is the extent of how deep rooted the matter is and the extensive damaged has been done.
We should always remember that no Country in this World is Perfect, for everyone is working towards perfection!

I don't. Thank God that he accused the supreme court judges who decided his law firm's case against Afe Babalola's as well. He really did a lots of damage to our fragile judiciary reputation without any proof

Latakia:
lol make u carry yansh give a doctor with dreadlock for injection

Na dreadlocks or absence of it go give me the right prescription? This mentality, ehn!

adioolayi:
Well, we may see Peter Obi as a mediator..which is very good.
There is nothing wrong in finding out of the court settlement on issues..it's a peace initiative.

My only concern here is glare hypocrisy playing out among the so called sympathizers of Dele Farotimi....You can't be claiming Dele Farotimi has done well and he is on the side of the law on one side and also label Afe Babalola a monster at the other side....then, turn back to support a call for a peace move...since you are so sure Dele Farotimi has never committed any crime.

If he has not committed any crime, as many as labelled what happened a civil suit...then ,there is no need for any emissaries to go and beg Afe Babalola.

I know some will argue Dele Farotimi didn't send Peter Obi to beg....well, what an elder see while sitting, a young person will not see even on a ladder.

I strongly believe Peter Obi would have acted from loads of wise counsels.

It's well.

So, if they need emissary to beg Afe, why do you think Obi is the fitting choice? There are plenty of people who are closer to Afe than Obi

Latakia:
Lawyer wey dey do dreadlock, se na lawyer be that? Zombidients sef

Na dreadlocks go argue him case for court?

cjudy:
Nobody should join the useless protest. When he was defaming someone so he doesn’t know it have consequences? Moreover this is a family affair, Hausa and Igbos stay clear and let the Yoruba the Emilokan fight their fight. So many injustice in that corntree and yet they never protest na now day break for them.

So, you got out of the country but tribalism doesn't get out of your blood?

EmperorCaesar:


All man for himself

Who sent him to defame people without proof?

Good initiative

ClassicMan202:
With the way Afe Babalola is fighting the activist, you will think he is truly innocent 😁

And Dele the accuser is the innocent, right?

SAN my foot, rubbish.

So, he is not even a SAN anymore? Do you guys' hate have limit or boundary at all?

Everyone knows that politicians, civil servants, police and the army are corrupt, but proving it is the problem. Those guys cover their tracks too well, either with more corruption or intimidation.

And which category is Baba Afe among all the categories you mentioned and which one Dele himself belong to?

I am not making excuses for anyone, for him to put it in a book, it means he has evidence and if he doesn't, then his wahala has started

Of course, you are. You just don't want to admit that you are making excuses for him

Judolisco:
Why dem dey beg, shey d guy no do anything.... A 95 yrs old man still dey go office, he still dey hustle, almost 50 yrs of hustling in the law profession, then one man will wake up one day and jst start writing baseless things about you..... It's wrong.....

God bless you, you're human

shankara7:
Dele will be free soon

Yeah, his offence is bailable. But how long the case will be depends on if he's wise or just a stubborn stupiid lawyer

ThunderfireNLMO:
I read all you comments. You are bias.

Dele fvcked up. Your firm lost a case against Afe's firm and you went to write a book about how he bribed the judges without evidence! Are we in Banana Republic? That's the only reason he should go scotfree without presenting evidence, or retracting/recalling the books or being made to stand in the docks

Vivianat:
Baba give an condition....to withdraw his petition. Baba hasn't personally charged him to court yet.

Lol. It is the police that will charge him to court upon the completion of their investigation. It is not the duty of baba anymore. It is not like baba is locking him up as educate illiterates are shouting online.
But baba can withdraw the case against him anytime he wishes which I, personally won't be happy about.

Good. USA helped them this far, time to turn on each other. Israel has been relentlessly bombing various facilities in Syria since the rebels toppled Assad regime because Israel knew what the fall of Assad and taking over of the combination of these opposition, militants and terrorists means for her

chatinent:
They are now afraid to come back home after prolly supporting a disaster.

Most supporters of the failed Pharoah supports him from abroad with a vow never to return home. Go back to your land ooo.

You sounded like a bitter soul. Are you a bitter soul?

SeverusSnape:
Na you foolish pass. What did you Putin-asslicker say when the US left Afghanistan??. Hypocrite.

Now, I'm interested in knowing what you said when USA left Afghanistan and what you are saying about Russia. I want to see if you are hypocrite yourself

okeysoninv:
olodo but you blamed usa when afghan army refused to fight taliban.

You are indirectly admitting that USA is weak too, right?

Ezewuzie01:
Arab Jihadists taking over Syria is a bad thing for Israel. They will surely make a move to recover the Golan heights from Israel and send waves of suicide bombers into the country if the Palestinians continue to be oppressed by Israel. They are more ruthless than Iran and their pussy ass hezbollah allies. That's why Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan is very happy as they take back Syria.

Not a bad thing if they're going to be a nightmare for Israel. Israel has been bombing facilities in Syria since the fall of Assad regime

USA was in Afghanistan for years, failure was still the outcome. It was a total disaster

004gist:
Who are u calling boy? Is it because we are on faceless forum? Ewu
So u guys should keep ur opinions to ur selves. If you tell someone who is away not to return home to build something there is no way he can come to do business. Because he will need to be on ground to run the business.

One thing we know our people who travel outside is their structure theu put on ground n this helps funds circulate in local economy.. Those selling rods, cement, labourer will sell, it creates a multiplier effect...

A friend who told me he wants to start investing in real estate from next yesr to 5 years just grow cold feet that he will now buy a building in Europe. That someone posted against buildings etc.

This advice will hurt local economy big time.

U guys should have sense

Grow up. When you are matured emotionally, you can come back to discuss this subject. You are clearly not in control of your emotion, kid.
