Legal Protection for Women and Girls Online, Key Laws and Policies in Nigeria
Are you aware that digital violence is a crime?
Online harassment, threats, defamation, data breaches, and other forms of abuse are not “just online”, they are criminal offences under Nigerian law. The protections are clear. The consequences are real. And ignorance is never an excuse.
Nigeria’s legal frameworks are designed to protect, prevent, and prosecute. No act of online violence against women and girls should go unchallenged or unpunished. Digital violence is illegal, and now you know.
Use the Internet Responsibly.
Respect Women and Girls.
The law is not silent.
