Controversial social media journalist, Kemi Olunloyo has been allegedly arrested and detained at a prison in Port Harcourt. The award winning investigative journalist took to her page @HNNAfrica and wrote "Dear Media, friends, fans. I was driven by the NPF to Port Harcourt on orders of the IG. Pastor David Ibiyeomie says I criminally defamed him because I posted a letter his church member sent to me alleging corruption and adultery. Both newsmakers refused to answer the allegations but Ibiyeomie called me several times to threaten me with lawsuits, death from above and misfortune. Church spokesman did the same with Danielle Ogbeche of Daily Post too. I have been charged with a cybercrime along with a Rivers state journalist who simply syndicated my story. 500 blogs did. Cybercrime? in the Nigerian constitution and remanded in prison. Next week 23rd I appear in court again for a second bail attempt. I will be in this Port Harcourt prison till then. THE PEN IS MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD. #Journalism is not a crime. I love you all. Pls trend #FreeKOO #FreeMadamHNN. @ludovicca_iacinno pls tell the world. Tweet it to the Toronto Sun's @Joe_warmington. Pls every one let Joe know. I'm in high spirits. The NPF recommended NO bail. Police is never your friend in Nigeria. I will always be a proud international investigative journalist. I will not see my phone again for a week. Off to a Nigerian prison. Mass Comm students never give up. I don't need my powerful connections. I want the law to run its course. GOD BLESS #FREETHESHEEPLE #KEMIOLUNLOYO

free speech under attack in Nigeria...The continuous attack on the Nigerian people's ability to get information is troubling..The day any politician, pastor or government official don't like that a journalist exposes their misdeeds, they use the Nigerian police who don't know their job to harass them...Nigerian has to stand up regardless of who is harassed

I honestly don't know who to belive, But If she happens to be lying why won't the pastor ignore her and focus on his pastoral work rather than shutting her up with the help of corrupt Naija police?.
