A Nigerian lawyer, Chisom Agbafor, has sparked reactions online after reminding citizens of their rights regarding police checks.
In a trending post on X, she stated clearly that the police have no legal authority to search an individual’s mobile phone. She, however, noted that many Nigerians willingly hand over their devices out of fear or ignorance, describing such actions as a result of not knowing one’s rights.
Her comment has since generated widespread debate, with many social media users sharing their experiences of unlawful stop-and-search encounters with security agents.
In otehr news…. Joseph Aloba, father of the late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba (known as Mohbad), went live on TikTok to refute claims of a romantic relationship with justice seeker Rich Grace.
During the session, he addressed a viral audio in which a woman, claiming to be his sister, alleged he was dating and sleeping with Rich Grace. Aloba clarified that the woman is not a member of his family.
“I want to tell the public that the woman in the audio is not my biological sister. I only knew her through Justice for Mohbad. She has been doing so many things to destroy my family. I sent the audio to her, and she said she was only protecting me from evil,” he said.
Aloba firmly denied the allegation, stressing that the thought had “never crossed his mind.”
“I am publicly saying it now that I have never dated nor had sex with Rich Grace. It has never crossed my mind. People will just sit in their houses and compose terrible lies. Rich Grace is a married woman who has never missed a coroner’s court session. She put her all into looking for justice for Mohbad. People need to be very careful with the lies they spread so they don’t inherit generational problems after Justice for Mohbad,” he warned.
An excerpt from his live session was shared online to back up his statement.
