In a post that Dele Farotimi shared on his official X handle, he stated that why must Nigerians continue to demand for the freedom of one person.

Here is what Dele Farotimi wrote on his page;

"Why must we continue to demand the freedom of one person or the other in a country that labels itself a constitutional democracy? Why have civil liberties become endangered, and fascism reigns in the stead of law? Why do terrorists and looters of the commonwealth walk free, whilst citizens have been reduced to victims in chains?".
