Embattled human rights activist Dele Farotimi has declared his readiness to face his ongoing trial.
In a defiant social media post on Sunday, Farotimi stated that his “battle axes have been sharpened, and his guns primed,” signaling his determination to confront his accusers.
“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.
“My battle axes are newly sharpened, my guns primed, I am ready to war.
“My resolve was NEVER tested, but I was waiting for next round of the fight to commence.
“I KNEW that the first round had been lost by those responsible for my imprisonment.”
Farotimi was granted N30 million bail by a Chief Magistrate Court in Ado Ekiti after being arrested for allegedly defaming Afe Babalola, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and founder of Afe Babalola University, Ado Ekiti (ABUAD).
He was subsequently released after meeting his bail conditions.
