About the Book

The internet has transformed the world as we know it. It has permeated virtually all aspect of human actions. It has made it easier to communicate, network, share contents and close transactions globally. The legal system is not left out, as the law must now take into consideration online activities which have real-world consequences. The Nigerian Internet Law is a ground-breaking work, exploring what is mostly uncharted territory in the Nigerian legal system. It provides a legal perspective on internet activities based on laws, regulations, judicial decisions, and global development.This book considers the history of the internet, its usage and penetration in Nigeria. It examines internet-related issues such as; cyberattacks, fraud, bullying, stalking, squatting, racism, terrorism, electronic signature, identity theft, data protection, net neutrality, and social media. It contains a comprehensive discussion on civil and criminal liabilities for online activities.Besides, it captures the role of key government personnel and agencies such as; the Attorney General of the Federation, Office of the National Security Adviser, Central Bank of Nigeria, National Information Technology Development Agency, and Nigerian Communications Commission in ensuring cybersecurity.This book elaborates on intellectual property viz-a-viz the protection of internet and software elements. For investors, it provides a guide to investing in eCommerce, FinTech and internet services in Nigeria.REVIEWSThis is a very important project. The book should be a very valuable resource for lawyers, policymakers, internet investors and entrepreneurs - Professor James Dempsey, Executive Director, Berkeley Center for Law & Technology, UC Berkeley School of Law. There is something in this book for everyone. It is well written, detailed, easy to understand, adequately organised, and immensely practical. I congratulate Akinkunmi on this giant stride - Adédèjì Ọlọ́wẹ̀, CEO, Trium Networks LimitedThe Nigerian Internet Law couldn't have been written at a better time. At a time where the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is aggressively prosecuting several internet scams perpetrated by Nigerians including Business Email Compromise (BEC) and romance scams, it is of great benefit to have a Nigerian legal resource that can be referenced. The book sheds light on Nigeria's position on cybercrimes, and an opportunity to question if our laws regulating internet scams are sufficient, or what we need is a more diligent prosecution and execution of the extant laws to address the rise in internet scams. Akinkunmi has written the book needed for the times we live in - Odunoluwa Longe, Co-founder, The Longe Practice. In Nigeria, addressing legal and practical issues in a largely uncharted, fastchanging and complicated subject as Internet law could be overwhelming. Hence, this outstanding effort by Akinkunmi Akinwunmi is a timely step in the right direction, bringing clarity to Nigeria's Internet law. I am glad that Akinkunmi has written this book, drawing on his vast knowledge and diverse experience. For many, I have no doubt that reading this book will be a great resource in understanding the rudiments of Internet Law in Nigeria and in proffering solutions to the many attendant challenges - Rotimi Ogunyemi, 1st Vice - Chairman, Nigerian Bar Association - Section on Business Law ICT Committee. In my opinion, this book is readily the most authoritative and instructive resource on internet law in Nigeria. It displays a powerful combination of the thoughtfulness, clarity, and scholarship in discussing the complexities of internet law. I am absolutely excited about the monumental contribution this book will make to legal education and the body of knowledge in Nigeria. This invaluable resource should have a place of honour in every library - Dayo Ogunyemi, Fellow, Canadian Institute of Resources Law.
