truth will continue to stare at you in the face but still u wont believe it

Yes there was, why una like to dey lie? A simple Google search will convince you. No be same GEJ's regime wey dey use soldiers stop newspaper distribution? What do you gain when you try to twist facts? I can't understand.

Tell us where in the contitution to find this 'cyberstalking'.

Also, how can someone be 'cyberstalked' on a blogging website?

It became a law in 2015
Cybercrime (Prohibition, Prevention etc) ACT 2015
Check it out.
Again my penny

attackgat:
All that is irrelevant. What is relevant is the law. Anyone, blogger or not, is allowed freedom of speech and expression. The only time a blogger should be arrested is if he wrote something that compromises national or state security. No blogger should be arrested for insulting anyone, misinformation or even for defamation.

No sir
He committed a criminal offence.
It's called cyberstalking under the Cybercrime (prohibition, Prevention etc) ACT 2015
He will go to jail if prosecuted

Kingzulex:

I checked it out. It says:

As can be seen, the emboldened "send" at the start totally defeats the purpose of using this law against bloggers. A person cannot be cyberstalked on a blogging website. Cyberstalking is when one party sends unsolicited, vile and offensive matter to another from one computer network to another. Since bloggers only deal on one computer network ( their blogging page) this law cannot be used against them since they do not have direct 'cyber-contact' with whoever they are blogging about

Good.
We are making progress. At least you now agree with me that there is a crime called cyberstalking and is punishable.
All bloggers sends their links to Facebook, Twitter whatapp, some send to individual emails and some gets to Nairaland.
The action word here is "send" it did not specifies that it must be sent to the complainiant before it becomes an offence. These will make bloggers a victim of this law.
Hope we've all learnt something new.

Nigerian Journalists, Law Enforcement, Soldiers, Customs/Border Agents, Lawyers, Judges and Civil Servants are amongst the most unprofessional and uncultured sets of beings I have ever encountered anywhere in the world.
