Kenneth Okonkwo: Tinubu must apologise to freed EndBadGovernance minors.

Kenneth Okonkwo of the Labour Party (LP) has urged President Bola Tinubu to offer an apology to the children who were arraigned as part of the #EndBadGovernance demonstrations. In response to several demonstrators who were charged last week for demonstrating against poor governance in August, he made the call on Tuesday while appearing as a guest on Arise Television. The youngsters must receive compensation, according to Okonkwo, who called the charges against them “wrong.” “The president must apologize to those children and provide them with appropriate compensation,” he stated. It was a grave mistake. The accusations were incorrect. “The method used to hold them was incorrect. The arraignment procedure was incorrect. During the entire process, they were simply mistreated, hungry, and mistreated. The police ought to express regret to them. Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) and Justice Minister Lateef Fagbemi was ordered by President Tinubu on Monday to drop the charges against the youngsters. A federal high court in Abuja dismissed the lawsuit against 119 people who were reportedly involved in the protest on Tuesday.

A guy accused of defaming Benue Governor Alia has been placed on detention in prison.

Paul Gyenger, 35, was ordered to be placed under remand in a correctional facility by a Makurdi Chief Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday for reportedly labeling Benue State Governor Hyacinth Alia “a chronic womaniser” on social media. Makurdi resident Gyenger was accused of defamation of character and cyberstalking. However, due to a lack of jurisdiction, Chief Magistrate Mr. Kelvin Mbanongun declined to accept the suspect’s plea. Mbanongun postponed the issue until December 17 in order to give it more time. The prosecution’s attorney, Insp Godwin Ato, had informed the court that the ADC had reported the case to the governor, ASP Ver Ingyatu, on October 16, 2024, at the Anti-Cybercrimes and Narcotics Unit, Makurdi. READ ALSO According to Ingyatu, the suspect shared content on a Facebook page that was owned by Terna Sunday. “The Governor is a chronic womanizer,” Tyo said. The complaint claimed that on the same Facebook account, the suspect also disparaged the governor’s reputation in various ways using derogatory Tiv language phrases. According to the prosecutor, a police inquiry led to the suspect’s arrest. Ato added that the offense violated Sections 393 of the Benue penal code of 2004 and 24 of the Cybercrimes Act of 2015.
