President Goodluck Jonathan has proposed a death sentence on persons who hack into the Critical National Information Infrastructure or computer networks resulting in the loss of lives.
The proposal is contained in the Cyber Crime Bill 2013, which is before the House of Representatives.
However, where there is no loss of lives but the offender causes “grievous bodily injury” to another person, the bill recommends a prison term of not less than 15 years.
Using any computer network for terrorism purposes also attracts life sentence.
The bill defines Critical National Information Infrastructure as “certain computer systems, networks and information infrastructure vital to the national security of Nigeria or the economy and social well-being of its citizens.”
The bill frowns on child badography, as it imposes a 10-year jail term for offenders or a fine of N20million or both.
The bill criminalises the use of force to engage children in sexual activities.
Offenders are liable to being convicted to10 years imprisonment or a fine of N15m
By the time I regained consciousness, they had invited my friend. When she came, she was shocked to see me in that state. She was screaming. Those people now concluded that they would take me to the police station but before then, they took me to a private hospital to get me treated. When we got to the police station, they started drilling me and I explained the way I explained to them at the house. They asked the owner of the house if I stole anything, he said no but the way they found me in the house was suspicious. He said maybe I was sent by somebody on a diabolical mission.
Their pastor also came and I explained the whole thing to him also, he prayed for me. He said my problem is spiritual. He said God wanted to deliver me that's why I came to that house that day. But now, my problem is over. That's how I was asked to go."
She also told Encomium that despite everything, the man she is dating still loves her and he is standing by her.
