The court also struck out one of the charges on cyber crime against Ms. Olunloyo for lack of jurisdiction to try the matter.

Recall that Ms Olunloyo had posted a letter that was written by a member of Pastor Ibiyeomie’s church in which the religious leader was accused of a number of misconducts that included infidelities.

She was arrested by the police in Ibadan on March 5 after Pastor Ibiyeomie registered a formal complaint where he accused her of defaming his character.
