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.

“If you refuse to be concerned now, remember it could be you. FORCEFUL ARREST, ILLEGAL IMPRISONMENT is a major tool of OPPRESSION and POLICE BRUTALITY. We must protest against this vehemently.

“STAND BY WHAT IS RIGHT. #RELEASEBABAIJESHAONBAIL #SAYNOHUMANRIGHTSVIOLATION.”

Subsequent to his threats, Yomi Fabiyi has taken to the streets of Lagos to lead the planned protest, alongside other concerned individuals on Wednesday, May 12.
