Nicknaming  IGP As ‘Illegal IG,’ Police File Cybercrime Charges Against Sowore

The Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, has reportedly filed cybercrime charges against human rights activist Omoyele Sowore for nicknaming him an ‘Illegal IG’.

Sowore was invited by the Force for questioning at the Nigerian Police Intelligence Response Team, IRT office at Old Abattoir by Guzape Junction, Abuja, on Monday.

Although the police granted him bail, the activist chose to remain in custody due to what he termed illegal conditions.

He is expected to be arraigned before Justice Liman of the Federal High Court in Abuja at 9 am on Wednesday.

The charges levelled against the activist are contrary to the initial allegations contained in an invitation letter sent to Sowore last week.

The invitation letter claimed that the police were “investigating a case of resisting and obstructing public officers, disobedience to a lawful order, acts intended to cause grievous harm or prevent arrest, compelling action by intimidation, reckless and negligent acts, refusal to assist a public servant, and cyberstalking, in which your name featured prominently.”

The three charges obtained by Urban Express News Online On Sowore’s Verified Facebook Page on Tuesday indicate all to be related to cybercrime and focus on the nickname ‘Illegal IG’ that Sowore used to refer to Egbetokun, the police chief, on his social media pages.
