.On Sunday, I shared a post on Facebook on the widely reported statements of a US diplomat on GMB. (The item was on most newspapers of the day and was already trending on the social media). Soon after, I received a warning and a veiled threat from a high ranking staffer of the Buhari Organization on my Facebook inbox. I later telephoned him in front of witnesses to ask why he was threatening me and he emphatically said that neither I nor anybody had the right to criticise Buhari. I asked him about criticisms against President Jonathan and he said it was alright to criticize him but not Buhari. More ominously, in his inbox message, he had warned me about a civil war and I promptly replied that it takes two to tango and that a civil war would not be hell for one side and a bed of roses for the other side.
The same yesterday I received calls from two scared colleagues informing me that they had received threat calls warning them against their "anti-Buhari" articles in their newspapers, warning them to desist forthwith.
I just hope that this trend stops immediately or the nation will get into trouble. I am trying very hard to be restrained in my comments on this issue because I am aware of the consequences. Journalists are not politicians or militants; we should be allowed to do our work.

I got this from the Facebook wall of a friend, a journalist and an author. This is dangerous and smacks of desperation.

That threat came from a toothless bulldog...trust me!

Your response to him nailed it...when you said: "that a civil war would not be hell for one side and a bed of roses for the other side."

bs....where did he get the telephone number for the high profile APC leader?

Yeye dey stink!

Parks my bus.

Attention seeking people.

It was a PDP candidate that told us that Militants would destroy the country if Jonathan doesnt win

Op who know you? Just pray to go that the men empower by Jonathan to acquire and carry arms will let you live after the election, because those that support Jonathan will die in by the guns acquired by either niger delta militant, opc or massob. Just mark my words, those that fall prey to the terror of this people are the same people that support Jonathan.

As far as the Army is UNITED, it will deal with any threat....

However, I'm not surprised at the threat from the idiot; its in their blood that they cant stand having their saint being criticized....

The old man has been straffing baby Aisha since she was a feeble, innocent, 9-year old....

OP this is a story for the ........

The op is a journalist. You know how they work don't you?

This is the typical APC response when their messiah gets scorched under the heat of glaring truth . . . . . .They will threaten you with their own version of "Touch not my anointed and do my prophet(Buhari) no harm.


I consider such fanatical support fatal to the well being of our nation . . . .

.

Who still dey fear death? Relocate now o. My own heart dey my back now o. The north should bring it up, we are waiting. My advise to my people is none should strike d first blow. Nigeria is fast becoming a jungle, a survival of the fittest.

That's why they don't want soldiers cos they want repeat what they did last time. Sometimes, they call my mum prostitute and my dad bastard, the last thing I would do is to reciprocate cos they can't even come to my face and say it.
