Prominent human rights lawyer Dele Farotimi’s book titled, “Nigeria and its CrNigeriaustice System” has become one of the bestsellers on Amazon Books.

This comes after Farotimi was arrested and arraigned before a Magistrate court in Ekiti over alleged defamatory contents in the book.

It was gathered that the book is currently ranked 555 out of all books on the e-commerce website.

The book also topped Amazon’s charts in general elections, political process, and political commentary and opinion.

The book which was published on July 2, 2024, discussed the alleged corruption in Nigeria’s judicial system.

However, his description of the country’s legal landscape has become a subject matter in a law court.

It would be recalled that Farotimi was remanded in the detention facility of the police by a magistrate court in Ado-Ekiti following his arrest on a 16-count charge of criminal defamation.

He was apprehended by officers of the Ekiti police command in Lagos and transported to Ekiti for arraignment.
