The federal government has amended the earlier five count charge against an activist and publisher of Sahara Reporters Omoyele Sowore on allegations of false posts against president Bola Tinubu.


Under the new charge, the five counts have been reduced to two, cyber stalking and cybercrimes which are contrary to section 24, sub section 0ne (b) of the cybercrimes prohibition, prevention amendment act, 2024.


Following this, two other defendants were removed from the charge. When the two counts charge were read to the defendant sowore, he pleaded not guilty.

The prosecution insists that the name of the witness cannot be disclosed due to the nature of his job.


But the judge insists that even if the name of the witness is not given, the defendant should be given a brief about the witness to enable them prepare for cross examination.
