What manner of freedom of speech allows you to pour shit on someone and expect him to look the other way. It is only in Nigeria people don't attack others intelligently. Because people have not really been reacting.
I like neds no nonsense attitude to people pouring shit on him

Did u ask the police IPO handling the case?

How is he an idiot and how was Ned's name destroyed?

Also, can interpret the law u quoted? Did the law u quoted say Penal code of the federal republic of Nigeria or does it say Penal code of Northern nigeria?

Well strictly speaking you are NEARLY correct in a pedantic way. It is called "Criminal code" in the south and Penal Code in the North . but what does the word "penal" mean
The Penal Code, promulgated on 30th September 1960, is the criminal law applicable in Northern Nigeria. In the south it is called Criminal Code NOT criminal law officially
Both the Penal Code and Criminal Code ARE CRIMINAL LAW
You need to understand the difference between Penal Code and penal code. The capital letter makes a very significant difference
"Penal" is the formal name of the law "penal" is a lay usage denoting the ordinary meaning of the word
So when you say there is "nothing like" you are being funny. The Penal Code of Northern Nigeria is very similar to the Criminal Code of Southern Nigeria in its contents , outline and function. There are notable differences e.g I believe adultery is criminalized in the Penal Code but they are very "alike" and the explanation I gave is very appropriate to a person who is not a professional

*Breaking!! Sowore Arrested Over Fake News Peddling Against Ned Nwoko*

Publisher of popular news outfit Sahara Reporters has reportedly been arrested this evening by men of the Nigerian police.

The arrest which was instigated via a petition titled “ A petition against Sahara Reporters Foundation and Mr Omoyele Sowore for criminal defamation, injurious falsehood publication of news known to be false contrary to section 391, 392, 393, 394, 395 and 418 of the Penal code of Northern Nigeria” by former member House of Representatives, Prince Ned Nwoko through his lawyers Trifold Law & Partners.

The petition signed by Bryan U. Ukaegbu on behalf of the the law firm accuses Sowore of several defamatory statements on his news outfit, social media handles aimed at running down their client’s business and political career.

According to the petition the publications were believed to have been done recklessly with no honest belief in the truth of the said words. Stating further that the quoted statements have elicited intense apprehension of imminent attack on his client.

Meanwhile reacting to the petition the police have since arrested Sowore and is currently held at the Force CID headquarters Abuja awaiting further investigation.

Which means it’s alright to say stupid things about people even when you know they’re lies, just because you’re the press?

thatsleepboy1:


Now you took me down the history lane, I understand it now. I'm not familiar with the Penal code cos I believe it has the full sharia law in it.

Thank you and G-D bless you sir.
