Former Minister of Education, Obiageli Ezekwesili, has said the reckless desecration of all public institutions under the administration of President Bola Tinubu will not be sustained.

This is even as the ex-Minister insisted that the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunde-Ojo, has to explain the basis on which Dele Farotimi appeared in handcuffs during his court trial on Monday.

In a post on her X handle on Monday, Ezekwesili maintained that those pushing the gross violation of Farotimi’s constitutional rights should advise themselves and cease pushing forward.

“So the gross absurdity of handcuffing @DeleFarotimi was lost on the Prisons Service?

“What crime is the @NigeriaGov @PoliceNG really prosecuting @DeleFarotimi for at this stage, because how did a civil matter between Dele Farotimi and Chief Babalola morph into the strongest evidence of why Citizens now sadly lack trust in and believe that our Judiciary is fully captured by Nigeria’s irresponsible political class?

“This reckless desecration of all public institutions under this administration of @officialABAT will not be sustained. Never.

“The Minister of Interior- Olubunmi Tunde-Ojo @BTOofficial who is in charge of @CorrectionsNg – The Prisons – has to explain the basis of those handcuffs on Mr Farotimi and immediately take steps to correct repeat of such anomaly by overzealous officers.

“Those pushing this gross violation of Citizen-Farotimi’s constitutional rights should advise themselves now and cease pushing forward the shenanigans playing out on this matter. Enough is Enough!

“Stop assaulting the sensibilities of Nigerians any further. Let the 2 citizens involved in this matter engage the courts using appropriate judicial processes for addressing allegations of Defamation.

“Wisdom is profitable to direct.

“Therefore, get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding as the book of Proverbs advises the young and the old alike, Ezekwesili said.
