Obi said he has received all sorts of messages because of his New Year message. He alleged that his life, family, and those around him are been threatened.

Morka said the death threats were a result of Obi’s alleged threat to his life and family.

“Peter Obi’s allegations that my words in that interview threatened his life have triggered serious consequences.”

He stated this while speaking during an interview on Arise News on Wednesday, January 8, The Punch reports.

The APC spokesperson said he has recorded over 400 threats, including approximately 200 explicit death threats, many of which were described in graphic detail.

“As of now, I have documented 400 threats, about 200 of which are explicit death threats. These are written threats that I will be submitting to law enforcement agencies.

“In these messages, individuals have detailed how they plan to harm me—threatening to shoot me, behead me, and carry out other gruesome acts. This is not mere rhetoric. It has even extended to direct threats against some members of my family. These are explicit and graphic threats, not vague insinuations.”

APC reacts as Peter Obi alleges threat to life

TheTalk.NG earlier reported that APC reacted to the allegation of threat to life made by Obi after his new Year message.

The ruling APC accused the former Anambra state governor of peddling falsehood and misleading Nigerians.

Morka said he never threatened Obi and that the claim is to get political currency and relevance.
