40-year-old OAP was arrested on suspicion of sharing the sèx video of the 10-year-old Chrisland student.
The 40-year-old broadcaster was arraigned on Monday before a Yaba Chief Magistrates’ Court in Lagos for sharing the sẹ́x video of a 10-year-old Chrisland Schools’ student on Twitter.
Uche Igwe was arraigned on a two-count charge of cyber-stalking and breach of peace.
Prosecution counsel from the State Criminal Investigation Department Panti, Mr. Augustine Nwabuisi, said Uche Igwe intentionally shared the video of the 10-year-old student, who was seen engaging in sẹ́xual intercourse with another student in Dubai on Twitter.
