Mr. Man, Dele Farotimi is not like an ordinary citizen you can just continue molesting any how. The guy know his worth and if you've carefully read the press release, you would have read where he said, he is in his house that they should come and arrest him instead of targeting his associates or staff to kidnap him.
If the man is afraid, he would not have answered to police invitations twice. I think it will be good you read carefully the press release from him above. He even made it known that all he wrote in his book, he stand by them.
There are procedures to do things. Even the police cannot be the judge in a case, theirs is to do investigation to the matter and then take him to court. The guy is a lawyer and seasoned and a sound one for that matter. He cannot be intimidated.
Let the police do the needful and charge him to court so that both him and the complainant can have their days in court rather than taking laws into their own hands.

Police don't release him keep the bastard in your custody for him to receive sense.

Keep him with you we do not need him outside anymore he is red flag to peaceful existence so lock him up.
Re: Police Arrest Dele Farotimi by AlwaysPositive:
I still do not understand the reason we use police to arrest people on the basis of defamation.

If you feel defamed, go to court and seek redress.

Stop intimidating people with the police because you think you have money.

Why not use same money and get a lawyer

Why are we so lawless in this country.

If it was Seyi Tinubu that said same thing, will Babalola arrest him?? Wouldn't he go to court??

If it was Davido that defamed Burna boy, would he have used police to arrest him??

Once you make small money, you start intimidating people.

This country is just failed state. Tuehhhhhh

The Nigeria Police Force has arrested Dele Farotimi, a human rights lawyer, FIJ heard on Tuesday.

Omoyele Sowore, a 2023 presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) and a good governance advocate, made the announcement on social media.

Are we in Banana republic that you're talking of prison in just a written petition. Does police have right to put someone in prison? Or police has turned to court in Nigeria?
This is what is called educated illiterate.

Arrest then sue to serve as deterrent for other's whom wants to follow suit..... besides why do you feel it's everyone who arrest actually wants a case? If i really Wana deal with you, there's no point involving the police, I'll head straight to the court and teach you a great lesson but using police to put one in order... nothing more!
No part of the law says arrest. If you want to deal with someone legally go to court. Police has no business in this case unless the guilty fails to pay the fine by the court.
You are obviously used to lawlessness

Re: Police Arrest Dele Farotimi by UltraSolid: 7:37pm On Dec 03, 2024
I don't know the details but Farotimi talks carelessly, insultively and with so much venom as a public figure. Not everyone will ignore him like Jagaban. The likes of Elumelu have some of the best lawyers at their service. They would have advised him to pursue a libel charge. Uncle Dele should really be careful.

Below is Farotimi calling Tinubu a drug pusher. That is Nairaland level. Not something dignified public figures do. Can he prove it if Tinubu sues for defamation of character?

He has not said as much as your emergency mentor Bola Tinubu. That one said worse things about Abacha.
are you comparing wise men who did so from safe distance with fool who thinks her is in yankee
Framing a genuine human rights activists as a trouble maker talking rubbish, all in the defense of the worst president in Nigerias history, is simply mind boggling.
You agbadorians too overdo

Do you know in this your comment, you have succeeded defaming Dele Farotimi by calling him a bastard? Are you his mother to have known he is a bastard?
If you're sue now, how you explain yourself. Be careful of what you say, as not to put yourself to trouble, because you may not have money to throw around like Dele Farotimi will do.
Not alone that, he would even have hundreds of people to come to his aid in this turbulent time and they will be donating millions to his account.
Let to out your mouth where you can control., as not to make the tongue of your mouth to cleave to the roof of your mouth.
Re: Police Arrest Dele Farotimi by Babangidapikin: 7:54pm On Dec 03, 2024
cheesy Big men are too busy biko, once you are a public figure expect people to defame you stylishly to get your attention, just take it as part of the price to pay , provided they are not affecting your personal and business life. See it as a sign that you are doing something right, for people to be talking about you, leverage on the good and bad talk for your good ... like they say Bad publicity is always better than no publicity .

Mr. Man, you know how many people that have challenged Tinubu to sue them if he is not a drug baron? Tinubu won't even try it as the court documents will reveal truly he was involved in drug dealing that made him forfeited $460,000 to the government.
Tinubu cannot claim he is not a drug baron, as his lawyer during the presidential tribunal petition claimed it was just a civil case and not a criminal one. And they also said, the case is over 15 years, hence it can't stand against him constitutionally and the tribunal agreed to those points as read by the lead justices both at the Appeal court and at the supreme court.

Freedom of speech does not permit damaging ones reputation.....

Let him go and explain himself in court....
But he is not doing that. He should have hired a lawyer to sue him for defamation of character rather than writing petition to the police. Is police station a law court? I don't see anything police can even do here. The case is only fit in to court.

He has no right to defame people, he is always talking like an educated area boy on TV.

Abeg they should lock him away for a few months let him calm down,

This is not London, don’t read Oyinbo books to the extent you forget where you are, or that you will open your mouth and be making all sorts of allegations like a rabid dog.

I hope they get him a barber while he is cooling off. He looks like a man mad from the streets the gave a bath and put in some clothes.
Those that think they can intimidate him only succeeded in shaking the hornet nest. Dele Farotimi is too refined to be toiled with.
If Tony is sure Dele defamed him, he has the money to hire the best lawyer in Nigeria to sue Dele. Why didn't he go to court rather than police station? What will police do in a case of defamation please? Wrong move if I may say.

When the police invite you, you contact your lawyer and go there even if you are a lawyer. Don't wait for them to come and grab you. That's how we roll. Simple!
Did you read the news at all? I doubt or may be you just have comprehension problem.
He was invited twice and he has honoured both and he was planning to honour the third one before they started harassing his associates and staff to lure him for kidnap.
Better cool down and read the press release than just forming arbitrary comment.
