A wave of protests is set to sweep across Nigeria and major cities worldwide on December 10, 2024, as Nigerians and global supporters demand the release of detained lawyer and activist Dele Farotimi. The protests, announced by Omoyele Sowore via Twitter, will focus on press freedom, the repeal of the Cybercrime Act, and Farotimi’s immediate release.
The global outcry comes in response to Farotimi’s arrest, which has sparked widespread condemnation from human rights groups, activists, and concerned citizens. The protests aim to bring attention to Farotimi’s plight and push for his release, as well as advocate for broader reforms in Nigeria’s judicial system.
As tensions build ahead of the December 10 protests, Nigerians and international supporters are urged to join the movement, demanding justice and freedom for Dele Farotimi. With the global community watching, the Nigerian government faces mounting pressure to address the concerns of its citizens and uphold the principles of democracy and human rights.
