DSS Arraigns Paul Oweleke Over Alleged Social Media Call for Military Coup Against Tinubu
A Lagos Federal High Court has remanded a man, Paul Jibrin Oweleke, after the Department of State Services (DSS) accused him of using social media to call for the military overthrow of President Bola Tinubu’s administration. Oweleke was arraigned before Justice Akintoye Aluko on a two-count charge linked to alleged cybercrime offences. According to the DSS, he used his online platform, “Oweleke TV,” to publish messages urging the military to remove the President and emulate recent military takeovers seen elsewhere in West Africa.
The defendant pleaded not guilty to the charges. Prosecutors asked the court to remand him pending trial, while his lawyer informed the court that a bail application had already been filed. The court adjourned the matter until June 16 for the hearing of the bail application and ordered that Oweleke remain in custody in the meantime.
Court documents allege that the broadcasts were capable of inciting public disorder, promoting disaffection against the government, and undermining constitutional rule. The charges were brought under provisions of Nigeria’s Cybercrimes Act, as amended.
Why didn’t FIFA re-designate referee Omar Abdulkadir Artan to Mexico and/or Canada? That would have been a better option than an outright exclusion.
FIFA are managing this World Cup like it’s their first ever.
Even if every billionaire on earth gathered in Monaco, Otedola would not be some ordinary tourist. Someone ranked the 2,750th richest person on the planet today belongs to a circle so rare that, in global terms, his wealth places him among the top 0.000033% of humanity.
Besides, according to Forbes records, he is a landlord there. And in that country, there are only two citizens in his wealth bracket. Only two who are billionaires.
@DrJoeAbah That’s the problem with Institutions, they reflect the values of those that lead them. Especially when the internal ethical standards leaders are forced to live by are flexible.

Since we have 36 States + FCT, kindly add others you can see online🙏
Can you all see how CAF left their Best Referee out in the cold. No support, no statement, absolutely NOTHING. We all know the reason. When Infantino asks Motsepe to jump, Mr Sundowns just has to ask How High Oga?
This has been arguably the most underwhelming World Cup so far.
The loudest critics, especially the countries that fiercely opposed Qatar, have suddenly gone silent and turned a blind eye.
Trumpists & their amnesia.
FIFA forced Qatar to override its own border policies to grant visas & direct flights for Israelis in 2022. For Russia 2018, FIFA mandated the Fan ID system to bypass Russian visa restrictions entirely.
Don't let Trumpmeningitis consume you.
This is utter bullshit. When Indonesia refused to grant the Israeli under 17 team visa’s for the 2023 U-20 World Cup, FIFA stripped Indonesia’s hosting rights and moved it to Argentina. So @FIFAcom can stop with the lies.
@BRICSinfo Sanctions, visa issues, ticket restrictions... and we're still told politics has nothing to do with sports. Some countries get a red carpet, others get obstacles. Coincidence?
