In an era where social media amplifies voices, #Nigerian authorities must realise that using outdated defamation laws to mute critical thinkers like @DeleFarotimi only spotlights their intolerance for dissent. It's not just about silencing one man; it's about stifling the free flow of ideas and accountability. 

Dele Farotimi is a distinguished human rights lawyer and activist who was arrested on baseless defamation charges. His detention sends a chilling message about freedom of expression in Nigeria. His voice is vital for Nigeria's democracy and is not a threat to be extinguished. Misusing legal mechanisms to settle scores is an affront to justice.
