Finally, the Cyber new law is finally passed..
LEGAL NOTICE – 2025 CYBERCRIMES ACT NOW IN FORCE
The Federal Government has officially enacted the Cybercrimes Bill into law, meaning all provisions contained in the Cybercrimes (Prohibition, Prevention, etc.) acts are now fully enforceable and binding across the country.
Everyone—especially online users, content creators, and administrators of digital platforms or social media groups—must take note of the following key provisions:
Key Offenses Under the Cybercrimes Act:
1. Unauthorized Access to Devices – Section 3:
Gaining access to someone else’s phone, computer, or digital device without their permission is a criminal offense.
🛑 Punishable by up to 5 years imprisonment.
2. Tampering with Data – Section 4:
Modifying, deleting, obstructing, or interfering with another person’s digital data without lawful authority is illegal.
🛑 Punishable by up to 5 years imprisonment.
3. Disclosure of Critical Information – Section 5:
Sharing classified, sensitive, or “critical information infrastructure” with unauthorized persons is a serious offense.
🛑 Punishable by up to 15 years imprisonment.
4. Recording Private Conversations – Section 10:
Recording private discussions without proper authorization, *even if you are a participant*, violates privacy laws.
🛑 Punishable by up to 2 years imprisonment.

🛑 Punishable by life imprisonment.
Note that if you are an Administrator of a WhatsApp Group, Facebook Page, Telegram Channel, or Any Other Online Community
You can be held liable for the content shared by members if you knowingly allow illegal content to be posted or fail to moderate appropriately. As such, always monitor your groups, enforce community guidelines, and avoid circulating unverified or inflammatory content.
Stay Legally Protected
Ignorance of the law is no excuse. In this digital age, it is essential to understand and comply with the provisions of the Cybercrimes Act to avoid prosecution. Be responsible with your digital activities, and protect your legal and personal reputation.
2. The "Quit Notice" Period:
Does the agreement respect the law? If you pay rent yearly, the law mandates a 6-month notice for recovery of possession.
Some agreements state you agree to waive the notice period especially when you owe rent.
3. The "Service Charge" Breakdown:
Demand an itemized list of what you are actually paying for.
4. Agent Fees" & "Agreement Fees":
Verify the percentage. In many states, these are regulated. Don't let an agent bully you into paying 20-30% on top of rent if the standard in your area is 10%. Ensure these payments are receipted separately from the rent.
5. The Maintenance Obligation:
Who fixes the leaking roof or the bad plumbing? A good agreement should clearly state that the landlord is responsible for structural repairs, while the tenant handles minor day-to-day wear and tear.
Warning:
Before you sign, read it twice.

“I was in South Africa, they have over 40k megawatt of electricity and yet people are complaining they have no power when we have just 4k in Nigeria and we’re not complaining. This is the time for us to come out to complain, what I’m seeing now, I can change it, Those who refuse to count our votes, we’ll count them with it. Our children cannot go on like this, this country must work, people can no longer take us for granted”

Another phone hack:
When buying a used iPhone or Android, make sure to confirm that the phone isn’t blacklisted or reported stolen.
All you need is the IMEI number.
Dial *#06# to display it and copy it somewhere.
Then go to a trusted IMEI checker website and run a scan.
If the result says “Clean,” you’re good to go.
But if it says “Blacklisted,” that phone may have been reported stolen, lost, or have unpaid carrier bills from the previous owner. And that can land you in serious problems later.
Some people buy cheap phones today and end up unable to use SIM cards tomorrow.
Websites you can use:
• imei. info
• imeicheck. com
Please share this so more people stop falling victim.
Let me share a hack: If the locked phone is more than 3yrs old (from production date), you can easily unlock it without paying a kobo.
Go to the website of the carrier it’s locked on, look for “unlock device”, enter your IMEI, and wait for 72hours.
Your phone will be unlocked.
My dad and his brothers are looking for their brother who left Ghana to Nigeria in the 80s. His name is Ebenezer Kwame Anka. We are hoping to get some answers because we know the power social media wields. Please help my family. 🙏🏾
Fellow Nigerians,
It is time for every eligible Nigerian — young and old, in the cities and in the villages, at home and in the diaspora to take two decisive steps:
1. Register to vote with the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) without delay.
2. Register with the African Democratic Congress (ADC). - RMK
I beg in the name of Peter Obi, please repost this video. I believe that if Tinubu supporters watch it, they would stop supporting him. Do everything you can to share it..
