‘I’m Ready For War’ – Dele Farotimi Dares Afe Babalola by Edygrin(op): 4:55am On Dec 30, 2024

Embattled human rights activist, Dele Farotimi, on Sunday said he is ready to face his ongoing trial.

Farotimi said his battle axes have been sharpened, and his guns primed, ready for war.

Posting on social media, the activist lawyer said he’s strong enough to confront principalities and powers.

“I am strong enough to rumble unruffled against principalities and powers, but I am human enough to retain the capacity to shed tears of joy in appreciation of the grace of God, expressed in the concerted efforts of fellow victims.

“My battle axes are newly sharpened, my guns primed, I am ready to war.

“My resolve was NEVER tested, but I was waiting for next round of the fight to commence.

“I KNEW that the first round had been lost by those responsible for my imprisonment.”

A few weeks ago, a Chief Magistrate Court in Ado Ekiti had granted Farotimi N30 million bail.

DAILY POST reports that the lawyer was arrested for allegedly defaming Afe Babalola, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and founder of Afe Babalola University, Ado Ekiti, ABUAD.

Farotimi was subsequently freed after meeting his bail conditions.

Afe is not your Papa mate. Those IPOB and some bastards supporting you to bring the man down can not help you except you provide the needed evidence, so stop the cry and be the strong man they believed you were.

Both of them should not back down. The plaintiff should not be begged or agree to drop the case. He should see it to the end.

The defendant too should not beg or give up. He should provide evidence to back his claim or risk going to jail.

This is what is good for Nigeria and the judiciary.

You are 100% correct. Post of the day award goes to you. Good precedence will be set whoever wins.

If Babalola wins then Farotimi will be punished and may go to jail for a year. Sending a huge message to public defamers and purveyors of fake news that Nigeria is no longer open to allow their business flourish.

If Farotimi wins, it will mean he has proven his case and will show many potential whistelblowers and activist what they too must do to cleanse the augean Stable and sanitise Nigeria. They should begin taking their cue from the west where whistelblowers will usually have amassed documented or video evidence, audio recordings, paper trails etc before they go public with allegations.

In fact many blockbuster films have been based on this theme in the long history of Hollywood with the conclusion always been that evidence is provided to indict the most mighty and bring them to book.

The intelligent and neutral Nigerians will simply wait for the conclusion, that will be good and developmental for Nigeria, whoever comes out victorious, rather than taking sides.

Smh.

The earliest you know that this your criminal trial will be purely based on facts and not social media grandstanding, the better for you.

You should use this time to get your evidence o because even God hates criminal defamation and defamers.

Pride goeth before a fall.

No problem.

You'll soon be back in court to defend the cases against you.

Make sure you have your evidence ready.

Instead of lying low and keeping your head down, you are still making mouth huh
