HON. IDOWU SUNDAY AFUYE DRAGS SENATOR CYRIL FASUYI, OTHERS TO COURT OVER ALLEGED DEFAMATION
Hon. Idowu Sunday Afuye has taken a bold legal step to defend his integrity and fundamental rights by instituting a suit at the Federal High Court, Ado Ekiti Judicial Division, over alleged defamation of character.
As contained in the court document, the suit, which centers on the enforcement of his fundamental human rights, lists the Commissioner of Police, Ekiti State, Senator Cyril Oluwole Fasuyi, and Hon. Ajegbomogun Dayo as respondents.
The application, filed pursuant to relevant provisions of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended), the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights, and the Fundamental Rights (Enforcement Procedure) Rules 2009, seeks redress for what the applicant describes as violations of his rights to dignity, personal liberty, fair hearing, and freedom of expression and movement.
Hon. Afuye, a respected public figure and communication consultant, is asking the court to intervene and uphold his constitutional rights while addressing the alleged defamatory actions leveled against him.
This legal action underscores his resolve to protect his reputation and ensure that justice is served in accordance with the rule of law.
Further details of the case are expected to unfold as proceedings commence at the Federal High Court in Ado Ekiti.
