Notable social media critic, Adediran Ojo was arrested on Saturday morning by the police and currently in Eleweran prison. The directive was allegedly given by the state Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun accusing Mr. Ojo of posting an update of the governor’s wife being arrested abroad for money laundering which the media critic denied blatantly.
According to one of activists who reached the police station to the aid of Comrade Ojo, he had already been beaten black and blue in bid to force him to write a statement.
Adediran Ojo also known as SF, is a student leader, media critic

A former Student Union President, Comrade Damilola Adebamiro popularly known as DaCool who is an associate of the detained activist has also reacted to the arrest:
The arrest of Mr. Adediran Ojo Emmanuel is a slap on Nigerian democracy, what if it were to be a military government, he probably might just be shot with a bullet in the head… Ojo is an activist who believes constructive criticisms can bring the best out of our leaders and this he has been doing objectively for many years now, he has worked with ait and has been a media consultant for years.
Do we say we no longer have freedom of speech and opinion? Which I think is our fundamental human right as stipulated in the Nigerian constitution… I’m sure many of our fellow comrades who are supposed to tell mr governor the truth won’t be able to say it for reasons best known to them, Governor Amosun is the Chief Security Officer of this state, I see no reason why he should be the one endangering the life of a citizen of his state for political reason, i’ll advise he releases Ojo and apologise before this issue goes viral. When Otunba Gbenga Daniel was in office, many called him names, it’s not on record that at anytime he ordered the arrest of anybody for a post on facebook, but rather he works on it and this made him the man he is today, people still love and respect him despite leaving office many years back, he is still a factor to reckon with as far as Nigeria is concerned.
