  "summary": "The Nigerian Guild of Editors has condemned the arrest and criminal prosecution of Foundation for Investigative Journalism correspondent Daniel Ojukwu, calling for his immediate release on bail. The Guild described Ojukwu's prosecution as an attack on press freedom and the right of Nigerians to receive information, stating that investigative journalism is not a crime and that asking questions about public expenditure is not cyberstalking or defamation. Ojukwu and FIJ founder Fisayo Soyombo face allegations of cyberstalking and criminal defamation in connection with investigative reports on President Bola Tinubu's Senior Special Assistant on Sustainable Development Goals, Adejoke Orelope-Adefulire.",
