The viral video in which he made the threat circulated on some social media platforms some weeks ago.
The young man, while displaying what looked like a locally made crude gun in the video, had warned supporters of the APC and PDP presidential candidates against coming out to vote if they âlove their livesâ.
He corked the gun to prove it was not a toy.
The young man then warned those who wouldnât vote for Peter Obi to stay away from polling units.
âYou dey observe am?
I go reach polling unit see men dey vote for Atiku or Tinubu. How far? Una go understand.
âIf you know say you no go vote Peter Obi, no come outâŠno come out.
âShebi you dey see am (I think you are seeing it). We dey vex!â, he threatened as he corked his gun again.
However, PR Nigeria, quoting an unnamed source, said the young man will soon be arrested over the violent threats.
âThe young man, suspected to be an IPOB militant issued his âmurderâ threat in a viral 30-second video which has been circulated on various social media platforms.
âIt is quite disturbing and worrisome when the armed criminal vowed that come 2023, he will shoot and kill persons at polling units, who attempt to vote either Atiku or Tinubu,â the security source said.
