AGP Executive Report

Last update: a minute ago

Courtroom Pressure on Media Figures: Nigeria’s Federal High Court in Abuja refused Omoyele Sowore’s bid to adjourn his cyberbullying trial, ordering him to enter his defence from June 5 and pushing for day-to-day hearings. Publishing & Accountability: The same legal fight spotlights how online publishers and writers are increasingly pulled into court over posts—raising stakes for free expression and newsroom risk management. Corruption Case Reopened: South Africa’s IDAC re-enrolled the R24.9m Nulane Investment corruption case after an SCA ruling overturned a prior withdrawal, with the matter back in the Bloemfontein magistrates’ court. Books & Learning in Focus: A new book documents Evelyn Pike, a Rotherham-born nurse who helped reshape medical care in South Africa after surviving World War I front-line service. Digital Safety & Misinformation: Nigeria’s police arrested a man in Ogun over a viral fake video alleging kidnapping/banditry on the Owode-Idiroko axis—another reminder of how quickly false narratives spread online.
