Columnist, Sam Omatseye, has raised an alarm over the alleged death threats issued to him from the supporters of Peter Obi, the Presidential Candidate of Labour Party.
Omatseye raised the alarm on Tuesday, in a tweet as he stated that the members of the OBIdient movement were threatening his life.
The alleged threats came in as reactions to his latest article which was published in The Nations newspaper titled‘Obi-tuary”.
The article is currently a subject of intense debate on social media as it has raised alot of voices, many of which are defending Peter Obi against the columnist and his perspectives.
In the column, Omatseye fingered Obi as a shelter for miscreants, saying, “Obi has turned out to be an excuse for even closet Biafrans to betray open emotions about Biafra without being accused of it. This includes intellectuals who did not show mercy to him while he reigned in Anambra as a pharisaic chief executive. It is like wearing a colour beneath another colour. Obi has become a shelter for both miscreants and activists of the crowd.”
He also said that Peter Obi should be held responsible if anything happens to him.
“Mr. Peter Obi, call your supporters to order. They are calling and issuing death threats. If anything happens to me, you will be held responsible!,” he tweeted.
