How is the EFCC responsible for cyberstalking? Why are you guys ruining your country?
Jakumo:
Wow this man has a long history of poking his nose into other people's business and making noise while posing to show off his muscles.

My prediction is that when our Very Daft Man emerges from EFCC custody, he will have discovered the importance of humility and minding one's own business.

Naaaa you dey play no be me. Who be VDM? Make I ask you between Nnamdi Kanu and VDM who get mouth , who get followers ? Who get sponsors ? Who is braver? Answer those questions first. I wan see something

VDM is more relevant than any elected official anywhere in Nigeria....I'm not surprised that he got arrested by EFCC though because he called them out many times for their corruption. Next week VDM will be out and continue where he stopped. They will not shut him up...he will say even more and more arrest are loading...

“We picked him up based on several complaints that he used his social media platforms to harass, insult, and intimidate individuals — actions that may contravene the Cybercrimes Act of 2015.”


If this is the position of the EFCC then I just pity them because of the massive lawsuit they're going to face when that clown VDM gets released cool
Lawsuits that has been demystified in Nigeria?

If VDM takes lawsuits lightly, is it an institution like EFCC that will flinch at the mention of lawsuits.

All the noise will loose steam after 2weeks and another drama will ensue!

This is purely junk news by Vanguard.. Arrested for cyber stalking by EFCC? Is Cyber stalking the duty of EFCC?

Hahaha, I still when NPF created a website for cyber stalking and anything related to online matter for people to report those who might have been attacking others unnecessarily on social media.

I reported someone and they gave me the link for proper reporting. Let me even check my email self


Address this to ur corrupt efcc

You're speaking from both sides of your mouth. On one hand you said its not EFCC job to arrest someone for cyberstalking,
on the other hand, you said he deserves it.

SMH!

Find something solid like rock and do the SMH properly. We would appreciate. That will save us from the senseless daily trolling

When people was advising him to slow down, his ers thought we were saying nonsense. The guy is new online, he doesn't even know how social media works..

In Africa, only a foolish person fight for the masses

Those who supposed to have come out to help him out, he has attacked almost all of them all in the name of being bold. Hahahaha

Nigeria need more of him to continue his good works. All you few people trying to bring him down with negative reports only end up making him more popular.

I've been using many financial institutions and none ever enter negatives balance except GTBank. All sorts of useless charges they use in collecting my money.

If Vdm does not hack the information or documents of any other individual, the EFCC should release him.

Hack is an offence

There is a thin line between the freedom to express opinion and other peoples rights. This is where the law must come in and separate the chaff from the wheat in of what really happened between VDM and his traducers. Well the attention is something else in this age of social media engineering...
Sijo01(f): 11:26pm On May 04
Since when did cyber stalking became financial crime to warrant efcc arrest?
Lanruze: 11:29pm On May 04
I have personally known Reuben Abati (PhD) since his days as a columnist before his elevation to Chairman, Editorial board of " The Guardian"

Abati is by far one of the most intelligent Journalist of his generation whilst having the privilege to attend six (6) of his book reviews including a classic one at the Golden Gate in Ikoyi in Year 2001.

The live show where VDM disrespected Dr. Abati was the day I wished he be paid in his own coin.

According to VDM his only offence was comparing his approach to issues with that of portable. He even had the audacity, temerity and guts to directly warn someone his father's mate that he will deal with him if he raises his voice on Ojy Okpe again.

He did two (2) editions with over 2m views.

I felt bad knowing Dr. Abati's antecedents and his stature as someone who avoids public banters.

The humiliation and public embarrassment was unforgivable especially with the large viewership.

Even if the heavens will fall, let the EFCC detain him for minimum of a week so his brain can be reset.

He assumed a public nuisance role and was already influencing a whole generation to be disrespectful, uncoth, uncultured and crass.

The guy is a foolish guy and his ers will lead him to his ruin soon

The day I saw him shooking his mouth into Apabio and Natasha matter, that was the day I told myself that this guy is stepping on gun powder.. These are people playing pure politics for their own interest

He talks too much and he's constituting nuisance lately but his ers call it activism
Bro he talks too much
He is better than EFCC

VDM is more of a nuisance than the activist he claims to be

Even Fela who is a stunch activist doesn't talk this much. He knew when to lay attack, how to attack, who to attack and when to be quiet.. The same goes to Sowore

This one just wants to be relevant by all means by poking his nose into people's private lives.. From religion to politics, relationship, marriage, investment, and things he has little or no knowledge about

Stop making assumptions and allow the EFCC to release an official statement on the matter.

I don't blame you though. I blame an irresponsible EFCC for picking him up and keeping him in their custody for more than 2 days (against the penal law) without a press statement, thereby giving room for rumour mongers to cash in on the situation.

He hasn't been kept for more than two days

Na weekend we dey, they don't count weekends.
Na when them wan wicked person them dey pick am Thursday/Friday cos no bail until Monday and they won't have run foul of the law

Those who accused GTB for arresting him should hide their faces in shame.
They were accomplice, they locked him inside the bank for five minutes waiting for EFCC to arrive.

GTB were not totally exempted.

Very well said.

Why would VDM attempt to change the narratives when Nigerians are waiting for Jesus Christ to descend from heaven to solve man-made problems? Anyone that dares to challenge the status quo is asked to shut up by the same idiotic masses that live to complain.

I am not saying that God doesn't hear the billions of prayers emanating from Nigeria daily. I just believe by all available evidence that he(?) doesn't care.

If there anyone between you and the guy who needs to slow down with his/her online cringe displays, it is you.
The kind of absurd reasonings you enunciate just to build a laughable base for the political bimbos in power is overwhelmingly alarming
