The other day, Ifeanyi Ubah was claiming no LG elections have been conducted in Anambra since 2014 or so, yesterday a news broke about governor Soludo questioning the governors which wanted to pay the new minimum wage while the Anambra state workers have already been threatening.

Why are there no regular local government election in Anambra state like other Nigeria states?

Upon the economic potentials of Anambra state, why are their state governors always find it hard to pay new minimum wage whenever there is an increase?

Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, SAN, has explained that the Central Bank of Nigeria misinterpreted the provisions of the Cybercrime (Prohibition, Prevention, etc.) Amendment Act 2024 as individual customers are not required by law to pay the 0.05% levy.

Falana in a release on Thursday obtained by SaharaReporters noted that the Cybercrime Act 2025 as amended listed businesses which are required to pay the levy as; a. GSM Service providers and all telecommunications companies; b. Internet Service Providers; c. Banks and other Financial Institutions; d. Insurance Companies; and the Nigerian Stock Exchange.

The renowned lawyer said, "Pursuant to the Cybercrime (Prohibition, Prevention etc) Act 2015 amended in 2024, a levy amounting to 0.5 per cent of the value of all electronic transactions shall be collected and remitted to the National Cybersecurity Fund overseen by the Office of the National Security Adviser.

"Even though the said levy of 00.0 5 per cent is payable by the businesses listed in the second schedule to the principal Act, the Central Bank of Nigeria has wrongly directed all financial institutions to apply the levy at the point of electronic transfer origination and that the amount is to be explicitly noted in customer accounts under the description “Cybersecurity Levy” and remitted by the financial institution.

"The circular issued by the Central Bank has given the very erroneous impression that the levy is payable by individual customers.

"The erroneous interpretation might have arisen from the substitution of "businesses" for "business" in the amendment. For the avoidance of doubt, by virtue of section 42(a) of the Cybercrime Act 2025 as amended, the businesses which are required to pay the levy are:

a. GSM Service providers and all telecommunications companies;

b. Internet Service Providers;

c. Banks and other Financial Institutions;

d. Insurance Companies;

e. Nigerian Stock Exchange.

"In view of the foregoing, the Central Bank of Nigeria should be directed to withdraw its Circular of 6th of May, 2024 forthwith as it has wrongly interpreted the provisions of the Cybercrime (Prohibition, Prevention, etc.) Amendment Act 2024. The CBN should also apologise to Nigerians for the misleading interpretation of the clear and unambiguous provisions of the Cybercrime (Prohibition, Prevention, etc.) Amendment Act 2024."
