Breaking News! Police Arrest Dele Farotimi

The Nigeria Police have arrested activist Dele Farotimi on allegations of defaming Tony Elumelu, the owner of United Bank for Africa (UBA).

This information was shared by Omoyele Sowore shortly after Mr Farotimi reported being invited by the police and disclosed details of an alleged assassination attempt on his life.

Sowore wrote; “I just learned that Dele Farotimi was arrested by Police over a petition by Tony O. Elumelu of UBA Group alleging Dele defamed him. It is pertinent that the Nigerian police are notified that the institution cannot continue to be used to settle personal scores, and we, the citizens of Nigeria, would no longer tolerate such a situation. Therefore, the Police at Zone 2 in Lagos are advised to release Barrister Dele Farotimi immediately.”
