A foremost Legal Practitioner in Akwa Ibom, Barrister CHRISTOPHER EKPO has called on Nigerians to be mindful of what they post on social media platforms, warning that any content capable of making people to have bad opinion about another has both Civil and Criminal implications.

Barrister CHRIS gave the warning while commenting on the defamation cases between a legal luminary and founder of AfeBabalola University Ado Ekiti, AFE BABALOLA and activist lawyer DELE FAROTIMI.

Recall that the police in Ekiti State, last week, arraigned FAROTIMI, after Mr BABALOLA complained that the activist lawyer defamed him in his book, entitled ‘Nigeria and its Criminal Justice System’.

Speaking on the need to avoid Legal risks online, Barrister CHRIS advised social media users to be cautious of what they publish as contents.

Speaking further, the Legal Practitioner emphasized the need for people to be fair in their writings.
