“Battle Axes Sharpened, Guns Primed”: Dele Farotimi Declares War in Defamation Case
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

In a viral declaration on social media, human rights advocate and activist lawyer Dele Farotimi has given his detractors a chilling warning: he is ready for war. The fearless lawyer, known for unflinching struggles for justice, announced on Sunday on X (formerly Twitter) that he was ready to confront what he called “principalities and powers” in his ongoing defamation battle.

“I am strong enough to rumble unruffled against principalities and powers, but I am human enough to retain the capacity to shed tears of joy in appreciation of the grace of God expressed in the concerted efforts of fellow victims,” Farotimi thundered in his post. His words, full of defiance and resolution, were a signal that here came a man to take no prisoners as he prepared to face his accusers head-on.

Farotimi, known for taking up some of the most insurmountable legal and social battles, did not mince words. “My battle axes have been sharpened, my guns primed,” he declared, adding that his resolve remains unshaken despite the setbacks he has faced. He confidently asserted that the “first round” of the fight had already been lost by those responsible for his imprisonment, setting the stage for an explosive legal showdown.

The Case That Shook Nigeria’s Legal Landscape

Farotimi’s remarks come against the backdrop of his high-profile legal tussle involving allegations of defamation against legal luminary Afe Babalola, founder of Afe Babalola University, Ado Ekiti (ABUAD). Detained for weeks before being granted bail by a Chief Magistrate Court in Ado Ekiti, Farotimi’s N30 million bail conditions underscored the gravity of the charges against him.

His arrest and subsequent trial have generated heated debate about the limits of free speech, with many wondering if the case was an attempt to muzzle one of Nigeria’s loudest voices for justice. To his supporters, Farotimi represents resilience and resistance, while critics argue that the allegations are a matter for the court.

A Defiant Comeback

Farotimi’s latest comments suggest he is gearing up for a fierce legal battle, with his sights set on not just defending his reputation but exposing what he sees as a systemic assault on truth and justice. His fiery rhetoric has already galvanized his supporters, who view him as a David standing against Goliath in the murky waters of Nigeria’s legal and political landscape.

As the case resumes, the eyes would be on Farotimi and his battery of lawyers, who appear set to fire all cylinders of defense. For this human rights lawyer, the case is hardly about clearing his name; it is about setting a precedent for accountability and protection of rights.

Farotimi’s fight transcends the courtroom. It is a battle for the soul of Nigeria’s justice system, a call to arms for those who believe in the sanctity of free expression and the rule of law. Whether he emerges victorious or faces further hurdles, Dele Farotimi is not backing down.
