Common Ben you can do better. Why this infamy and vanity?

Nothing last forever.

Highest bidder judiciary

Nigeria judiciary is now a joke. But in seconds a politician will have kobo bail. While the common man will bring a surety with land in Abuja with 10m. What a nation.

Nigeria is happening to Agba Jalingo at the moment but he will triumph, it's a matter of time.

Free agbajalingo_

And FFK is moving freely

The victory of evil over good is bit for a while!

Next will Rufai Oseni of Labour in vain party working for arise tv of PDP.

This guy fit win elections some day.

What is Ayade’s problem with Agba Jalingo?

Journalism is not a right to character damage. I support press freedom but not at the expense if defamation and fake news. If Jalingo can spend time to write about Mrs Ayde it shouldn't be difficult for him to defend himself in court.

What exactly is this about!

Denial of bale for defamation is simply an abuse of power aided by Nigerian courts! This is insane

Again?

So this young man is still in prison since?. Hmmmm.

Deny a bail to someone who's crime is defamation. Grant bail to someone who's crime is murdering about 16 people in Kaduna. Oh, I forgot. Different laws for the politicians.

Mean while:

tripdarlyn You would never see lowlife never do well Agbado boys and girls here condemning this act, wicked set of people

This man again

What rubbish and they set boko haram free

In a very corrupt Society like Nigeria journalist, especially the investigative ones are supposed to be the most dreaded persons in media but then the corruption in the media sector in Nigeria is astonishing.

I pray he gets the help to get him released, this kind of government is kinda same to Military

I thought he was released? There was a time I saw him and sowore on photo together celebrating his release abi dem don arrest am again?

Cyber bullying, like what he has said is not true. This cyber bullying law should be reviewed

GloWorld want to finish me, how can you say I fished 4k Data for three days

You can’t do the time, do not do the crime. Being a journalist is not an immunity against prosecution.

Bt, bokoharam is been free, in the name of rehabilitation, repentant, bt innocent people are wasting in prison, power intoxicate, may 29th Ben will leave power.

Justice for Agba Jalingo, journalist must be free to tell the truth in the face of tyrany

Nigeria judiciary has just reduced themselves to executive errand boys. Where they are used to operress the poor. The same judiciary granted one odugwo who was accused of man slaughter and murder in kano state bail. And was given certificate of return by inecnigeria . Nigeria

These politicians talk tough but they suffer from severe low self-esteeem. You criticise them and they run away crying, seeking revenge with a corrupt judiciary.

Na everyrime dem dey arrest this guy

Power is transient. This executive rascality will end very soon.

Agbo jalinga na hook to Ayade and family 🤣🤣. As them no go allow am rest, them sef no go rest.. Ayade make una remember say una time for cross river government house no plenty again oo..

I don't think he is the first journalist to be such condition. Just the matter of time he will get it right.
