Dele Farotimi’s book, ‘Nigeria and its Criminal Justice System,’ has become a bestseller on Amazon Books as the human rights advocate faces legal action over the publication.
The book is ranked 555 out of all books on the e-commerce website and is number one in elections.
The book also topped Amazon’s charts in general elections, political process, and political commentary and opinion.
Customer reviews rated the book 4.9 out of five stars.
WITHIN NIGERIA recalls that Farotimi is currently in detention after his arrest following a petition by popular lawyer, Afe Babalola.
Babalola alleges that he was defamed in the particular book, insisting that Farotimi’s statements, also highlighted in media interviews and widely circulated online, were designed to destroy his reputation.
“All these statements are false and incorrect written deliberately to destroy my reputation. Dele Farotimi referred to me severally in his book as the Doyen of the legal profession,” he stated.
The activist pleaded not guilty to all the charges.
