Magistrate Court Does Not Have Jurisdiction Over Farotimi’s Case, Lawyer On Justice Administration

[@johnnykim1931]

Thank you for speaking from your heart. Justice system is a mess in Nigeria

[@akanemeuche4789]

Ya he spoke from his heart

[@ndubuezeamaku8401]

Thank you, my brother, for saying truth. Tomorrow, they will blame the youths for demarcating the nation, while they are the one who are demarcating . I mean those who are in authority of the country.

[@azeezyaya6293]

Thanks for throwing more light on this issue. God bless you sir.

[@EfootballToGood]

Keep Speaking the truth sir .

[@wakawakatv2445]

This Ayo is one reason some people don't watch Channels and switch to Arise. Very unrealistic questions

[@HassanjohnOnucheyo]

You are right my brother. I almost threw up listening to this unnecessarily questions he is posing to the barrister seated there.

[@oroboghaedwin2464]

Well done for speaking out, experienced what you are describing recently in Abuja.

[@uscomglobal6019]

If a lawyer can say this we are done

[@ytimi5231]

Definitely, Dele Farotimi is sure of his criticisms

[@eloquentsites]

Ayo is not asking questions, he is rather setting mouse traps for the lawyer and raising possible innuendos.

[@Peter-xu4fb]

Exactly, he is forming one nonsense there.

[@popsonjaiyesimi7670]

Like Seun usually does. Seun did it to DF but being DF, the lion, the liberator and a legend, he put Seun in his little island of knowledge and the usual hybrid mannerism " ko se eku, ko se eiye"

[@magnusizedomwen8973]

Thank you for being honest he's a great lawyer who chose to speak truth rather than big grammar the usual Nigerians ways

[@olukaayodele]

A great Lawyer indeed because he spoke your mind

[@ronkealonge8378]

​@@olukaayodeleWhat is in your own mind ? Lies and corruption.

[@sampsonfaniyi3799]

You can see that he like other lawyers who have spoken on this matter is AFRAID of stepping on toes though they have all revealed one truth or the other about the judiciary and that is why Dele Farotim's fearless approach has to be appreciated. He started this struggle ready to risk it all. Nigerians need to rise to this occasion. That the judiciary is corrupt is well known and I believe change is possible

[@abeladeyinka829]

Lawlessness at the corridor of the Judiciary is a slap on the face of Lawyers anywhere in the whole world.

[@benolukwu6925]

Ayo, what do you want this man to say ? He's making it abundantly clear how the judiciary in Nigeria has been grossly corrupted and frustrating the efforts of younger lawyers.

[@AnagorJoseph-fo8oo]

My case took almost 6years before the 1st hearing and since then it has been adjournment upon adjournment

[@DEO159]

God bless you sir for speaking the truth. Ayo woke up on the wrong side today he is asking a leading nonsense question. Program anchors should stimulate the guests to spwak freely, especially those bold enough to speak the truth against the current criminal justice systems.

[@MaggieIgoni]

Correct 💯💯 response 👍🏿...😮

[@ronkealonge8378]

Is Ayo scolding this honest lawyer of speaking out? What type of journalist is this?

[@JessesonTestimony]

The negative perception is exactly what is happening right now. Thank God you are all affirming what Pa Dele Farotimi wrote in his book. The judiciary is monumentally driven by absolutely comprehensive impunity. Pa DF will continue to be their nightmare...

[@oludayo11]

Pa Dele Farotimi? Pa? When did he become an old man?

[@BlueIvy-f9c]

Nigeria is finished!!!! We need more of you to cone out oiooo just like your President condemned Dele Farotimi's arrest!!!! Afe Babalola will kpai on this case ni agbara Olorun

[@TCM-o2f]

The negative perception in the judiciary right now, is a read flags.

[@Leergreen164]

Nigerians are allowing one old lawyer to alter due process and is replacing it with his own single- handedly. Dele Farotimi is being vindicated. The Nigerian judiciary is truly rotten!!!

[@onuorax9574]

The likes of Ayo are super examples of what is wrong with the institutions in Nigeria. The press knows the truth but they dance around to make sure they get their impanelled speakers to give the answers that justify/cover the rot in Nigeria.

[@willo5599]

Who do we the people be held accountable in all these shenanigans playing out in Nigeria judiciary, the government,the bar, the bench or the governing body?

Thank you sir

[@elizabethidemudia6039]

Let the young grow ooo please, this country Nigeria must not go down like this

[@akinwumisamuel2161]

At this point, we Nigerians in Nigeria and Abroad can open Go Fund Me account to file this Dele farotimis' case to international bodies, because this time is best time we can join hands together against coruption, corupt and wcked leaders in Nigeria. What Mr Dele is fighting for, is for the benefits of us and our generations. These wcked leaders are afraid us whenever we rise against their he.inous deeds in Nigeria. Mr Dele may not get justice thru this corupt Nigerian justice system system.

[@ronkealonge8378]

This Dele case will be like 2023 election case where all evidences were rejected. Trust the establishment.

[@ronkealonge8378]

Agreed with you ,it's an opportunity to check mate them , internationally ..

[@olukayodebakare8530]

Please let do it! I'm in support

[@olukayodebakare8530]

How do we start it? Any contacts?

[@ocheandrew6022]

Why is the anchor of the program asking the lawyer questions that seems to shut him up. He's trying to make him a bad person that is tarnishing the image of the judiciary. If you continue to ask questions like this many people will not be able to come to your studio to say the truth.

[@popsonjaiyesimi7670]

I weep for the nation. Only the mighty lives in the country 😳

[@AnthonyAdinnu]

DSS release our leader MMK he was discharged and aquated by Nigerian count so oby ur count other by releasing our leader MMK no going back until Biafra come

[@GaniyuSaheed-g5i]

Fast tracking a case of this nature is also part of the proof of the observations of Dele farotimi. The way and manner this is handled shows that the gap in the dispensation of justice is deliberate.

[@AngelaHill-fz8vd]

Ayo, you need to STOP!!! LISTEN TO THE GUY, YOU ARE NOT SAYING THE SAME THING!! THIS IS NOT ABOUT AFE BABALOLA CONTROLLING FROM HIS BEDROOM. GO TO ADO EKITI, IF AFE BABALOLA DOES NOT LIKE A JUDGE POSTED TO EKITI, HE GIVES ORDERS TO BE TRANSFERRED OUT WITHIN 24 HOURS. WHY ARE YOU ACTING AS IF YOU DON'T KNOW THE JUDICIARY IS CORRUPT???

[@tonasalbert3641]

Am still saying it, the thunder that will fire Nigeria journalist, still warming up

[@olugbengamonehin3928]

How can the public knows good judges from the corrupt ones. The system is corruptly bad for the hope of vulnerable Nigerians.

[@MarcusJeremiah-u2u]

My own observation and opinion is that the judiciary must be separated from the executive. As at today it appears that the executive totally controls the judiciary and there is tendency for biased judgement.

[@MaggieIgoni]

Absolutely 💯💯💯...

[@BlueIvy-f9c]

Yes, the courts can be monitored CENTRALLY! THAT QUESTION IS ABSURD! THIS LAWYER IS SPEAKING OUT HIS FRUSTRATIONS. LISTEN TO HIM!! THE GOOD JUDGES ARE NOT UNDER AFE BABALOLA

[@BlueIvy-f9c]

@wakawakatv2445 with all due respect, do you understand English or my statement at all? I don't understand your write up. All I said, was the guy was expressing his own Anger, grievances & Frustrations like Dele Farotimi about our Judiciary. This concerns everyone! DON'T RANT UNDER MY SPACE PLS!!!

She can make a name, now in Nigeria that can never be forgotten in Nigeria history. Let her restore and revive the bad name of the judiciary. Let her not listen to Tinubu but listen to the constitution and do the right thing. She can build the image and glory of her children and her family. CJN I assure you just turn one of those corrupt cases to good one. And see the applause of Nigerians.

One major challenge in our society is our joint conspiracy to sustain a system of lack of accountability. Sometimes, I think it's embedded in our culture. We have this cover-up culture that we directly and indirectly enable. We people speak out against a societal ill, we tend to gaslight them for speaking up yet claim we want a system of accountability. Rather than collectively spotlight that system, we want a solo sacrificial lamb to go against an established system to prove what is systematically concealed. And we ask the stupid question 'how did we get here?'

[@chineduonuorah]

Nigerian judges are wonder creators and their judgements baffles SP Akpabio and former SP Lawan for whatever reason and against the dictates of the operating electoral laws were inexplicably cleared by the supreme court.

How does a Supreme Court set precedence, when it in itself does not follow its previous rulings?
