Activist-cum-politician, Omoyele Sowore, has pleaded not guilty to the cybercrime charges against him at the Federal High Court in Abuja.



The Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, had filed the charges against Sowore for calling him an “illegal IGP.”

Sowore had made the remark on his verified X handle.

However, the activist is standing trial before Justice Liman of the FCT High Court and was docked at about 10:00 am when the charges were read to him.

When the charges were read, Sowore pleaded not guilty to all the charges.

Meanwhile, several of his followers had protested in front of the court over Sowore’s arraignment.
