Meanwhile, It would be recalled that Mr Giwa-Amu was alleged to have investigated  false and malicious publications in a United State based on-line outfit, pointblanknews in collaboration with a fake journalist based in Nigeria, Steve Chinua-Ogwu against the Publisher of Vanguard Newspapers, Mr. Sam Amuka and his wife, Oyindamola.   He had earlier caused a highly inciting and totally fabricated petition to be written on behalf of the fake journalist to almost all the security agencies, organisations etc against the Publisher of Vanguard Newspapers.   

In the petition addressed to the Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Giwa-Amu claimed that he copied all those organisations including both the Police Service Commission, The National Assembly, The Minister of Police affairs etc but thorough Police checks and investigations carried out later showed that none of those he claimed he copied the petition to officially received it.   Official enquiries at those places turned out to show that it was all a ruse.

Presently he is the defence counsel to the fake journalist who is facing charges for blackmailing the Publisher of Vanguard Newspapers, Mr. Sam Amuka.
