In a tweet made on his official X handle, formerly known as Twitter, prominent lawyer and human rights activist Dele Farotimi decried the state of governance in Nigeria, taking aim at key public figures, including the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Mahmood Yakubu, and the Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Ishaq Oloyede.
Farotimi in his tweet indicated that there would have been repercussions if what is happening currently were to be happening in other climes, but because this is Nigeria, nothing will be done.
The tweet made by Farotimi read, “in a place governed with vision, inhabited by the rational, and ruled by law, Yakubu would be resident in a prison cell, Oloyede fired, and public hearings would have been scheduled by the government at multiple levels. But this is Nigeria. Nothing will happen. We are different.”
