Yomi Fabiyi, Others Stage Protest in Lagos, Demand ‘Baba Ijesha’ Release on Bail

Nollywood actor, Yomi Fabiyi has finally staged the much-publicized protest to demand the release of his embattled colleague, Baba Ijesha, who was arrested for allegedly defiling a minor.

The actor, who has shown support to Baba Ijesha since the alleged rape saga began, had appealed to the police to release his colleague on bail, but all efforts proved abortive.

Following his appeal, he threatened to lead a protest against the continuous detention of Baba Ijesha without trial, which he claims is a violation of his human rights.

Fabiyi wrote:

“PEACEFUL PROTEST on Human Rights, Illegal Detention by Police coming up on Wednesday if the Police refuse to do the right thing and grant BABA IJESHA administrative bail which is his fundamental rights.

“Any progressive state and society MUST respect the RIGHTS of others as enshrined under the law.
