Blord: Lawyer speaks about Cybercrime Act
He explained in the clip that the businessman, Blord, committed an offense and mentioned it.
As a result of this, he said, Blord, if found guilty by the court, may be sentenced to a specific number of years in jail or given the option of a fine.
He said in the TikTok video:
"Blord may end up spending 5 years in prison. Firstly, Blord has just been remanded in Kuje Prison for identity theft."
"The main reason for this video is that while there's social media clout, there are some people who will not take your clout for granted."

Speaking about the exact reason for his statement and the section of the law he used as a basis, he said:
"You should know that there are some decisions that may seem fun but are criminal in nature. If you look at Section 22 of the Cybercrime (Prohibition, Prevention) Act, identity theft is a crime, and you could spend about 5 years in prison if convicted, or pay a fine of up to 7 million naira."
@councilsmiles advised in the video:
"Mind you, there are still other laws that prohibit and criminalize this act. Aside from that, he can also sue for breach of his fundamental rights to privacy, and the court could order him to pay a heavy sum. That's why you need to be very careful and mindful of what you post online."
