Nigerians React As Video Of Police Questioning Suspects Running Gistlover Blog Emerges

A video showing the police parading the three young men allegedly running the Gistlover blog has emerged.

However, Nigerians have expressed doubt that the young men have any connection to the controversial blog.

Recall that the Nigeria Police Force National Cybercrime Center had earlier announced that they had apprehended three people in connection to a case of conspiracy, cyberstalking, and threat to life.

A statement released by the spokesperson of the Nigeria Police Force, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, says the suspects, namely Adebukola Kolapo Nnedum Micheal Somtomchukwu and Isaac Akpokighe, all males of ages 27, 25 and 30, respectively are members of a syndicate called Gistlover family, responsible for the daily running of the Gistlover blog.

The arrest was made at the instance of a petition filed by Dr. Seye Oladejo.

In the video shared online, the Nigerian Police can be seen questioning the suspects and their involvement with Gistlover.
