Let's be friends since you are so desperate for one. I take you out for a fancy meal and then buy that bra and skirt that you are desperately searching for?

Vacora:
That's the problem. It is very worrying no one sees how far reaching this issue is. I find it disturbing that anyone including this third rate "journalist" can be arrested on trumped up charges or hearsay evidence and then remanded for an undisclosed term. It can happen to anyone.The allegations are spurious and her arrest serves no purpose. As much as I don't pay her any attention, we have much more pressing matters as a nation than a pastor whose "feelings" have been hurt by some crackpot bloggist. Our senators and politicians are robbing us blind and they are walking free as a bird. Criticize them and see yourself being arrested too for 'cybercrime' too.

Eddygourdo:
despite your knowledge of all u claimed, everyone on this thread has still observed you a fool. If fools keep quiet we may miss them, but with you haven spoken. Thanks for erasing all doubts

ImaIma1:
Yes we have more pressing issues. But answer this question...did she commit an offence that is punishable by the law?

oluwasheun94:
i said gtfoh. gay!!!!!

Vacora:
Not what your mum said last night. But I did not want to bring her into it but she would not leave after last night and I am a gentleman. Hold on whilst I bring out my flute to play you a tune...

What is defamation?
According to the Criminal Code in section 373, a defamatory matter is a matter likely to injure the reputation of any person by exposing him to hatred, contempt, or ridicule, or likely to damage any person in his profession or trade by any injury to his reputation. Such matter may be expressed in spoken words or in any audible sounds, or in words legibly marked on any substance whatever, or by any sign or object signifying such matter otherwise than by words, and may be expressed either directly or by insinuation or irony. It is immaterial whether at the time of the publication of the defamatory matter; the person concerning whom such matter is published is living or dead. In essence, saying anything likely to damage the reputation of a person may be considered defamatory.
Defamation could either be a libel or slander, it is considered libel when the false statement is published in written form for instance in newspapers, magazines and the web but considered slander when it is spoken.

What are the legal consequences of defamation?
Any person, who publishes any defamatory matter, is guilty of a misdemeanour and is liable to imprisonment for one year; and any person who publishes any defamatory matter knowing it to be false, is liable to imprisonment for two years. Also, any person who publishes, or threatens to publish, or offers to abstain from publishing, or offers to prevent the publication of defamatory matter, with intent to extort money or other property, or with intent to induce any person to give, confer, procure, or attempt to procure, to, upon, or for, any person, any property or benefit of any kind, is guilty of a felony and is liable to imprisonment for seven years (Section 375 – 376, Criminal code).

i know there is freedom of speech. but that doesn't mean you should abuse it. by d way, do u know the meaning of slander and libel? i suggest u check your dictionary. its high time journalism became responsible in nigeria. she just happens to be a scapegoat

Zeuz007:
The topic said they're taking her case to court on the 23rd. As for her arrest, the pastor can't be charged with anything. That's she's still in cell is her wahala, she should get a good lawyer to bail her. The bail stuff is the problem of the police not the pastor.

This is not good news at all. why are Nigerians very heartless? they think they are better than others. This woman did not hurt anyone but speak her mind. We are in a democratic government and our constitution protects our freedom of speech. There are millions of thieves, killers and looters out there being celebrated by Nigerians. This woman never stole our money, she did not rape our kids, she did not kill anyone, she did not break the law, she did not steal anyone's husband, she only spoke her opinions. Are we not supposed to speak our minds? Must we all have the same viewpoints? We have all either insulted our presidents and governors or wished them dead. Patience jonathan was called all sort of names and everyone found pleasure and fun in it. GEJ was ridiculed like an item and no one found it insulting that our president was the object of mockery. Obasanjo was called a monkey and no one was arrested. Some people wished death for Buhari and no one was arrested even as they are surprised that he returned from the UK. How would you all feel if you get locked up for your thoughts? Are they not equally evil? TB Joshua has not responded for failing to appear in court 2 times. Isn't that an arrestable offense by our constitution? Yet many people are solidly supporting him when the families of the people who died on his property still cry over the loss.
How could you arrest someone and lock her up till the 23rd as if she is not protected by the law? Biafrans hate Buhari for locking Nnamdi Kanu up against his constitutional right and i am surprised some of them rejoice over same treatment meted out on kemi. Is kemi now worse than the Fulani herdsmen killing people everywhere? Is she worse than the Boko haram committing carnage for half a decade now? Mr DPO are you not aware that the nation needs your services in Sambisa forest? The pastor that arrested her, is he representing Jesus or Juju? How could a pastor arrest someone for defaming him? Matthew 10:22; Matthew 24:9; Luke 21:12 judging by these scriptures, that pastor is not a Christian. What name can one have when Jesus himself was blasphemed and killed? Now. the pastor is the one killing someone. What does he preach on a Sunday? Does he pray to God or to DPO?
Kemi did not devalue our naira, she did not put us in this recession, she did not contest for any political post. Even if you kill her, your condition remains stable.
Let Nigerians have their freedom to speak their minds even if it opposes your beliefs. Rejoicing over this unfair treatment against her means denying yourself and your children the right to speech. Person way talk must die? See Nigerians are butchered every day in south Africa and languishing in the prisons over there. MTN and DSTV bosses have not been arrested. When e reach for where dem go show muscles dem go day act like baby. Na poor man body dem day get power.

Its funny how nigerians laud the police for locking Kemi for accusing Pastor David of adultery while Otobo is being praised for pulling down Apostle Suleman.

sammydirectly:
Your sense of reasoning is either akin to a SSCE holder or a Uni drop out. Halfbaked education dey worry you. All the time you were typing this essay on your blackberry curve, you could have developed yourself more. Smh

So , because of free speech and democracy, we should then take laws into our hand by destroying people's reputation and brands anyhow abi?

roselynbas:
wait until she dents your image, then, refer to it as freedom of the press. Do you know how many people believed her false accusation without proofs? This will curb her excesses and stand as a deterrent to those doing same!

oxon:
na wa oh plz have you considered the fact she has deformed this mans reputation ..and the mans reputation is his brand , if she keeps deforming this man character it would inversely affect his church business that's like putting this man job on the line she could like to channel this her investigative journalism to exposing senators and whistleblowing , cause I don't seem to see how this is helping society , if not to create trend for nairaland ....attacking one celebrity after another to gain cheap recognition seems hair brained ...this is Africa everybody has that same freedom of speech we that decide to mind our business are we stupid , she has done her part by running her mouth ,he has done his part by arresting her .. there is a thing called law of libel , there is freedom of speech but freedom after injurious speech to persona and character is not actually assured ,t's easy to say free Kemi because its not you she's after...plz let her cool of in jail..imagine she hinges her investigation on what some one told her like seriously the person was on the bed with them ?

lionson:
Are you basing your stance on marals or what?
When she was busy running other people down including her own father, why you know quote scriptures? Na when e con reach pastor turn you con dey yarn rubbish.
Did you even bother to find out what she did and what her past antecedents has been?
How can a member of a church send you a letter, you didn't bother to verify or investigate then you just post it online and you expect the person concerned to keep quite?
Honestly, she dey lucky shey shey e no pass this one and she will pay dearly for it.
For you, you're hyprocrite of the first order and for everyone liking this dumb comment all of na the same 'Hypocrites'.

Lawalemi:
I'm surprised at the dummies celebrating her detention

roselynbas:
So Pastor Ibiyomie ORDERED the Nigerian Police to lock her up without bail? I didn't know he had that much power. Then he should also order the police to lock up our thieving politicians then!!

You can't admire yours? If you can't admire yours how do you expect others to admire it.
