dc.description.abstractThis paper x-rayed the impact of media laws on investigative journalism practices in Nigeria. It identified types of investigative journalism practices like covert and overt, data-based and scientific strategies of exposing corruption, injustice and inequality around the world. It also identified how legislative encumbrances such as the Cyber Crime Act, 2015, as amended, stifle press freedom in Nigeria and recommends their abrogation. The paper also recommends a huge protection and insurance package for investigative journalists following the murder of several of them.
