Bail With A Gag: Dele Farotimi's Bail Conditions Expose A Sinister Agenda

Dele Farotimi, has been granted bail by a Magistrate Court. But, and it's a big but, there are conditions attached to this bail. Farotimi must provide a 30 million naira bond, two sureties, one of whom must be a property owner, and he must also submit his passport. But what's really got people talking is the prohibition on granting media interviews.

Now, I ask you, what are they hiding? Why can't Dele Farotimi tell his side of the story? This is a clear infringement on his right to freedom of expression and press freedom, as enshrined in the 1999 Nigerian constitution. It's like beating a child and then telling them not to cry. It just doesn't add up.

This whole saga started with Farotimi's book, "Nigeria and its Criminal Justice System," which exposed the rot in the system. And now, it seems like the powers that be are trying to silence him. But, as the saying goes, "the truth will out." The people will not be silenced, and they will continue to demand justice.

We'll be keeping a close eye on this story and bringing you updates as more information becomes available. In the meantime, we want to hear from you. Share your thoughts on this developing story. What do you think is behind the prohibition on media interviews? Let's get the conversation started.
