The magistrate court in Ado-Ekiti has denied bail to human rights activist, Dele Farotimi.
The PUNCH reports that Farotimi was taken to court for allegedly defaming Afe Babalola, the founder of Afe Babalola University, Ado-Ekiti.
At the court hearing on Tuesday, the presiding magistrate, Abayomi Adeosun, postponed the decision on Farotimi’s bail application to December 20.
This happened after the police counsel, Samson Osobu, argued that the bail application submitted by the defendant was incomplete and not properly filed.
