Sowore Faces Court As IGP Egbetokun Drags Him Over Forgery, Cyberbullying
Human rights activist and SaharaReporters publisher Omoyele Sowore appeared at the Federal High Court, Abuja on Wednesday after being charged by the Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, over alleged forgery and cyberbullying.
Sowore, who arrived with supporters, described the case as a political witch-hunt, branding Egbetokun an “illegal IGP” and accusing President Bola Tinubu’s government of using repressive tactics to silence critics.
The IGP alleged that Sowore forged and circulated a police wireless message to damage the force’s image. The court had earlier ordered six banks to release Sowore’s account details over alleged terrorism financing and money laundering.
Sowore dismissed the accusations as baseless, vowing not to be intimidated.
