1: Next to life, man cares most for his reputation. Sometimes, we find an individual giving it the foremost place, preferring death rather than living a life of ignominy and disgrace. Reputation is thus in fact a great internal force in the mind of every man, impelling him to do
great things. On a careful analysis of the human mind, one will find this element of longing for name and reputation as the basic motive of most actions.
Rightly, law gives protection to a man’s reputation, as it gives protection to his property and life. Before we go deep into

If she had accused D'banj of stealing her Phone or Money most of us would have said she is lying what is D'banj doing with her phone? But she accused him of RAPE and most people believe it, Why? Because he is a
a man therefore capable of RAPE yeah? Why wasn't this logic applied on the earlier scenario? Because RAPE is a Flagitious,Heinous,egregious act one which is unpardonable. Rape is a sensitive issue, one that does irreparable damage to the victims such as (PTSD), including
flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety, and uncontrollable thoughts. 2: Depression, including prolonged sadness, feelings of hopelessness, unexplained crying, Suicidal thoughts or attempts. However the effects of false RAPE accusations or unconfirmed RAPE accusations are worse

My people, boys and girls,Men and Women please (Twitter) is not a Court of Law,Social Media isn't a place you get redress. You can actually go to jail or pay huge sum of money in d¨¤mage because of the things you posted here on Jack's APP or Facebook or any other social media
Seyitan's accused D'banj of rape weeks ago on Twitter. Those are defamatory. Some will ask what is defamation? A statement which tends to lower the claimant in the estimation of right thinking members of the society generally, and in particular to cause him to be regarded with
with feelings of hatred, contempt, ridicule, fear and disesteem. It is imperative to note that on this issue D'banj need not prove that the statement is false, as the law presumes that in his favour. The onus of proof in an action for defamation shifts to the defendant (Seyitan)
if she raises the plea of justification that the statement is in fact true even though such statement may be laced with malice. Where the plea of justification fails, it may be a call for heavier damages on the defendant. Internet defamation is the use of social media tools
including networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter,WhatsApp Webcast, Google Plus, Blogs, YouTube, etc. to damage a person or corporate body. We all know D'banj has suffered all the above mentioned platforms and loss of his name over the cause of these accusations online.
On Seyitan's arrest and detention. Dear Twitter Lawyers of Court of public opinion.
Before criminal proceedings in respect of a libel (form of Defamation)are instituted,there must be a case to go before a criminal court that is so clear at first sight that it is beyond argument.

that there is a case to answer. Secondly, the libel must be a serious one, so serious that it is proper for the criminal law to be invoked. It may be a relevant factor that it is unusually likely for the libel to provoke a breach of the peace.
Thirdly, the question of the public interest must be taken into account, so that the judge has to ask himself the question: ‘Does the public interest require the institution of criminal proceedings? Once the Attorney General arrives at the conclusion that the criminal law ought
to be invoked, then it is not a private case between individual: the state has an interest and the state has a part in it. So I am very sure that D'banj has no hand in her presumed arrest as it isn't within him to arrest and detain his accusers but the state.
So if @seyitannn_ is arrested it is by the state and not D'banj.. Furthermore section 4 of the Police Act enables the police to act if there are publications of defamatory items against a person. See also sec 373-375 Criminal Code. It's about law and not @iamdbanj arresting her.
D'banj was accused of rape weeks ago, he kept quiet. People said He is guilty that's why he has nothing to say.Days later Dbanj takes steps to clear his name, people they say he is oppressing his victim because he filed a petition. D'banj will not be as silly as y’all hoped as to
to resort to intimidation! He can’t! His reputation is at stake here and D'banj is fighting back savagely, they are talking about unfairness and intimidation. It was unfair to call him a rapist without conviction. Wait and let the law run its course!
