The Police on Monday re-arraigned four bloggers, Precious Eze, Olawale Rotimi, Rowland Olonishuwa, and Seun Odunlami, on fresh charges before the Federal High Court in Lagos for allegedly cyberstalking and publishing false allegations through various social media outlets against Guaranty Trust Holding Company.
The defendants are facing 10 counts of conspiracy, cyberstalking, false and misleading publication, extortion, threats, and causing the loss of shares and market value brought against them by the police.
The defendants, on September 27, 2024, were arraigned on two counts of cyberstalking and false publications intended to insult the CEO of GTCO, Segun Agbaje.
After the defendants took their pleas, Justice Ayokunle Faji ordered their remand at the Correctional Centre.
On the fresh charges, the defendants were accused of knowingly publishing false, misleading, and unsubstantiated allegations through various social media against GTCO, its management, the Central Bank of Nigeria, and the entire Nigerian banking system, intending to cause disorder.
