Peter Obi To Pay Dele Farotimi's ₦30 Million Bail Fee

Nigerian Human rights lawyer, cum activist, Dele Farotimi, has been released from prison after meeting his bail conditions.

Naija News reports that this was made known by the 2023 presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, in a post via X on Tuesday.

Sowore said Farotimi has regained his freedom from the Ekiti prison and is returning to his home in Lagos.

He wrote: “I am pleased to report that Dele Farotimi is no longer being held at the prison yards in Ekiti state and is now returning home to Lagos. The struggle continues!”

Recall that Dele Farotimi was arrested earlier in the month for allegedly defaming a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and founder of Afe Babalola University, Ado Ekiti (ABUAD), Afe Babalola.

A few days ago, a Chief Magistrate Court in Ado Ekiti had granted Farotimi ₦30 million bail.
