Chief Magistrate court was arrested last Tuesday in Lagos by operatives of the state police command over allegations of defamation against him.<\/p>\n<p>He was accused of defaming a renowned lawyer and founder of Afe Babalola University Ado-Ekiti(ABUAD) Aare Afe Babalola, SAN in his book titled, \u2018 Nigeria and its Criminal Justice System\u2019 where he alleged that Babalola corrupted the

filed by Farotimi\u2019s legal team.<\/p>\n<p>But the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, DSP Sunday Abutu in a statement on Friday, said the decision to ban all forms of \u2018illegal\u2019 protest and gatherings was to ensure the safety of lives and property in the state.<\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cAny form of unlawful gathering, demonstration or protest is unacceptable as the intelligence report available has it that some unscrupulous individuals have planned to hide under this protest to hijack it and unleash mayhem and create apprehension in the state.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Command, under the leadership of CP Akinwale Kunle Adeniran, is assuring everyone of adequate security during and after this Ember months period while seeking for more support, collaboration and obedience to law and order.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn view of this, the Command, to sustain the peace, Parents and Guardians are therefore implored to advise their wards to shun any act that is inimical to the peace and security of the State, as anyone who runs foul of this directive will be dealt with in accordance with the law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Apart from banning protests, the police have also announced a ban on the use of fireworks in the state during the Yuletide period and beyond, noting that the \u201cuse of the various fireworks at times creates panic and confusion as it could be difficult to differentiate their sounds from the real gunshot sound.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Said the decision to ban all forms of \u2018illegal\u2019 protest and gatherings was to ensure the
