The group at a press conference in Ado-Ekiti, urged Nigerians to be guided by the truth, alleging that the current narrative was skewed towards a narrow misrepresentation of the truth.

Publicity Secretary and spokesman of the group, Mr. Rotimi Opeyeoluwa, said it was wrong for any right-thinking person to allege persecution in the ongoing trial, stressing that there was no persecution but a judicial prosecutorial process at play.

He vowed that the group shall remain in the courts and ensure that justice is served to both Aare Afe Babalola (SAN) and Mr. Dele Farotimi.

According to him, Aare Afe Babalola cannot be rubbished by upstarts or emergency human rights advocates whose stock in trade is to trade in lies and bullying.

Opeyeoluwa pointed out that advocacy is not the same thing as pending lies and resolutely failing to present as much as a shred of evidence to back claims that have been permanently put into a self-published book.
