The Public Relations Officer of the Nigeria Police Force, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, has said that the act of raining direct curses on individuals online constitutes cyberbullying and is a punishable offence.

In a post on X.com on Friday, Adejobi stated that the act of targeting someone with harsh and abusive language online goes beyond the realm of freedom of expression or criticism.

He wrote, “Raining direct curses on someone online is cyberbullying, not expression of freedom or criticism.

“And cyberbullying, which is even different from defamation, is a criminal offence and punishable. Be guided.”
