Obi visits Farotimi, lauds his dedication for ‘Better Nigeria’
The 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi, has visited lawyer and activist Dele Farotimi, describing him as a man who desired a “better Nigeria”.
Obi eulogized Farotimi’s virtue in a series of tweets on Friday, following his visit to Farotimi.
“Farotimi exemplifies courage in the face of adversity, consistently taking bold stands for good governance in our nation.
” I wish him a fruitful and productive year as we continue to work together toward the development of our country”, Obi wrote.
It would be recalled that Farotimi recently returned from a correctional facility in Ekiti State after being arrested on December 3 by officers of the Ekiti State Police Command.
The arrest was linked to allegations of defamation and cyberbullying brought against him by renowned legal icon and Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Aare Afe Babalola.
Babalola alleged that Farotimi defamed him in a 116-page book titled Nigeria and its Criminal Justice System.
