One of the chieftains of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Segun Showunmi has reacted after human rights lawyer, Dele Farotimi was arrested by operatives of the Nigeria Police Force.
According to DAILY POST, the human rights lawyer was arrested over an alleged defamation.
In a post that Segun Showunmi made on his official X handle on Thursday, he said a slip of tongue can happen but it is immoral for people to make strong statements in a book like Dele Farotimi has done.
Segun Showunmi said Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Afe Babalola is within his rights to want the matter addressed.
Here is what Segun Showunmi wrote on his official X handle;
“We must be clear about that, a slip of the tongue can happen but when people make strong statements in a book the nature of which Farotimi has made, surely that is immoral. So, High Chief Afe Babalola is within his rights to want that addressed”.
