Sowore Vows to Expose Police Abuse: Names of Cybercrimes Act Victims Compiled
Human rights campaigner Omoyele Sowore has revealed that he and his team have started compiling the names of Nigerians who have been unjustly harassed or arrested under the Cybercrimes Act 2024, allegedly at the behest of Inspector General of Police Kayode Egbetokun and Force Public Relations Officer Olumuyiwa Adejobi.
The announcement came shortly after a court session where the criminal defamation lawsuit, filed against Sowore by the Nigerian police on behalf of Senator Ned Nwoko, was adjourned. During his statement in Abuja, Sowore emphasized that there are ongoing efforts to challenge the unlawful actions of security forces, particularly the police, and to protect the fundamental human rights of Nigerian citizens.
Sowore expressed alarm over the plight of innocent Nigerians, as well as vocal critics of the government, who have faced illegal detentions, police brutality, and false charges related to alleged Cybercrimes violations. He revealed that discussions are underway to identify individuals who have been arrested or prosecuted simply for making Facebook posts under the pretext of violating the Cybercrimes Act.
“We are working alongside the police to ensure we identify all those who have been arrested for cybercrimes, especially those involved in Facebook post bullying—actions driven by the corrupt leadership of Muyiwa Adejobi and the illegal Inspector General of Police who supports such harassment,” Sowore stated.
Further, Sowore raised concerns about the welfare of police officers, calling for a reform of the pension and gratuity schemes that affect personnel below the rank of Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIG).
He criticized the system that leaves lower-ranking officers, from Commissioner of Police down to constables, with meager pensions, noting that after 35 years of service, they often receive less than N2 million in gratuity.
During the resumed hearing of the cyberstalking lawsuit against him on February 4, 2025, the prosecution counsel informed the court that he had misplaced a critical motion, prompting a request for a duplicate. The case was subsequently adjourned to May 5, 2025, by Justice Emeka Nwite.
Sowore is currently facing trial before Justice Suleiman Musa Liman on a 16-count charge filed by the Inspector General of Police, accusing him of calling Egbetokun an “illegal IGP” on his social media platform ‘X.’

Again, Tiwa Savage, Ex-Husband Coming Together After Six Years Of Separation
By Kayode Sanni-Arewa
Tiwa Savage and her ex-husband coming back together after six years of being divorced should tell you a lot about what men can really do for love.
They got married in 2013 but divorced in 2018 when Tiwa Savage’s husband accused her of cheating.
After their divorce, Tiwa Savage dated several other men, but those relationships didn’t end well at all.
She even said it herself that one thing she regrets the most was divorcing her husband because of the men who came after her when she got really famous.
Tiwa didn’t get married after divorcing Teebillz but dated several other men, and even got her knacking video leaked.
Today, they have settled everything and are reportedly back together! Teebillz didn’t think about the men Tiwa dated after their divorce; he thought about the value Tiwa had in his life and their son Jamil, then decided to settle things and take her back as a partner.
When Tiwa Savage saw his message publicly asking her back on Instagram yesterday, she lowered her pride, took accountability for what happened to their relationship, and publicly apologized to her ex-husband.
In less than 24 hours, they fixed things and are now back together.
Tiwa who is now 44 years old is ten times richer than her ex-husband, but that video of her apologizing and telling her ex how much she loved him really touched me.
Men can forgive women for cheating, too. It just takes more time than it might for women.
We wish them a happy life and hope to see them remarry again. 😍♥️
This is a sign for you to go and fix things with your baby daddy if you want to be happy again!

Following Trump Footsteps, Argentina Quits World Health Organization
By Kayode Sanni-Arewa
Argentina said Wednesday it will quit the World Health Organization, following in the footsteps of Donald Trump’s United States and citing similar complaints over the UN body’s management of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Railing against the economic fallout of Covid-19 lockdowns, President Javier Milei lamented “one of the most bizarre crimes against humanity” as he explained the reasons for the move.
Argentina’s self-declared “anarcho-capitalist” leader said the WHO had been “the executing arm of what was the greatest experiment in social control in history
The South American country announced its withdrawal from the UN health agency two weeks after Trump, an ideological ally and hero of Milei, signaled Washington’s planned exit.
Milei’s decision was based on “deep differences regarding health management especially during the pandemic,” spokesman Manuel Adorni told reporters earlier, adding Argentina would not “allow an international body to interfere in our sovereignty.”
Argentina had been hard hit by the pandemic, with about 130,000 deaths, and Milei’s predecessor Alberto
Fernandez imposed a five-month lockdown in 2020 widely perceived as crippling for a struggling economy.
Adorni insisted withdrawing from the WHO gave Argentina “greater flexibility to implement policies adapted to the context” locally, while ensuring “greater availability of resources.”
The WHO did not immediately comment on Argentina’s departure.
WHO data shows Argentina contributed about $8.75 million in membership fees to the organization across 2022 and 2023 — 0.11 percent of the total budget.
It was slated to contribute $8.25 million for 2024-2025.
The vast majority of the UN agency’s budget comes from voluntary contributions, however, and Argentina has made none in recent years.
Adorni said Argentina “does not receive funding from the WHO, so this measure does not represent a loss of funds for the country.”
He also accused the body of “a lack of independence.”
‘Endless quarantines’ –
Last year, Argentina refused to join a new pandemic protocol drawn up by the WHO and gave notice of its intention to withdraw from the agency altogether.
International relations expert Federico Merke, of the University of San Andres in Buenos Aires, said the move would leave Argentina isolated when it comes to information-sharing and cooperation in the case of a new pandemic or other health threat.
Milei is an avowed fan of Trump, who signed an order within hours of his January 20 inauguration for the United States to withdraw from the WHO, which he has also criticized for its pandemic handling.
Washington was the biggest contributor to the Geneva-based organization, which Trump claimed had “ripped us off,” and the US withdrawal leaves global health initiatives short of funding.
Since taking office in December 2023, Milei has gutted public spending, having vowed to maintain a zero budget deficit after years of overspending.
His austerity measures are estimated to have tipped millions more people into poverty, but the country last year recorded its first budget surplus since 2010 while inflation fell by nearly half.
Milei was the first foreign leader to visit Trump at his Mar-a-Lago Florida estate after the Republican’s November US election victory.
His decision also casts new doubt on Argentina’s future adherence to the 2015 Paris climate change agreement, under which countries committed to limiting greenhouse gas emissions to keep global average temperature rise below a critical threshold.
Withdrawing the United States from the Paris pact was another of Trump’s first moves after taking office.
Milei’s Argentina, pushing for a free trade deal with the United States, has previously said it was “reevaluating” its strategy “on all climate change-related issues.”
