Police Arraign Sowore For Calling Egbetokun ‘Illegal IG’

#RevolutionNow convener Omoyele Sowore has been arraigned by the Nigeria Police Force on cybercrime charges before Justice Musa Liman of the Federal High Court, Abuja.

Sowore had honoured a police invitation on Monday, January 27, 2025, at the Force Criminal Investigation Department, where he was interrogated.

Although granted administrative bail, he rejected the conditions and remained in custody. The police later filed a 16-count cybercrime charge against him.

One charge alleges that on December 20, 2024, Sowore referred to Inspector General of Police Kayode Egbetokun as “the illegal IG of Nigeria Police Force” on his X handle. Another accuses him of posting Egbetokun’s photo with the caption: “Mediocrity, incompetence, corruption—a country run by characterless people cannot make progress.”

The police also claim Sowore warned that “IGP Kayode Egbetokun will destroy the Nigeria Police if we don’t act now.”

Sowore pleaded not guilty to all 16 charges.
