“…Carrier and Spafford [11] further divided forensic readiness into operational and infrastructural readiness, with the former being concerned with adequate training and equipment and the latter with efficient data preservation.

To be adequately empowered to investigate Nigeria's growing Internet fraud cases, the country's financial crime agencies must attain considerable forensic readiness.…”

4This case study investigates Nigeria's cybercrime agencies' digital forensic readiness and forensic capability and how this affects the cybercrime caseloads and prosecution. The Routine Activity Theory (RAT) and the Technology, Organization, and Environment (TOE) theories were applied. This study used the TOE framework to examine the digital forensic technology adoption and forensic readiness of cybercrime investigators in Nigeria and relates this with the RAT framework and the effectiveness of law enforcement agencies as capable guardians. The research population of this study was the Nigerian Internet fraud investigative agencies 3 the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Nigeria Police Force (NPF). Eighteen participants from the two organizations were interviewed. The paper concluded that the cybercrime investigators in Nigeria are not forensically ready given the established lack of digital forensic resources (technological gap, human resources gap, skills gap, funding gap), particularly when juxtaposed with the high cybercrime caseloads in the country.

“…Another aspect which needs to be considered is that enacting an Act and enforcing one, are very different matters. Regardless of the innate shortcomings within the Cybercrime Act 2015, it is worth asking whether the Nigerian authorities are capable of implementing and enforcing this Act (Eboibi, 2017).…”
