Alleged Death Threat: Buhari Group Attacks Atiku, Calls Ex-VP Inconsistent

Alleged Death Threat: Buhari Group Attacks Atiku
The Buhari Media Organisation (BMO) has faulted former Vice President Atiku Abubakar’s request for protection from President Muhammadu Buhari.

The organization, in a statement signed by its Chairman, Mr Niyi Akinsiju and Secretary, Mr Cassidy Madueke in Abuja on Monday, described the request as shocking.

It noted that the request showed how inconsistent the former Vice President could be.

THE WHSITLER reported that Atiku had earlier in the month raised the alarm over alleged threat to his life and his family members.

Atiku, in a letter dated September 7, 2018, and addressed to President Buhari called for extra security.

The letter noted that the threat followed his decision to contest the 2019 presidential election on the platform of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).

A copy of the petition which was sent to the national chairman of the PDP, Prince Uche Secondus was entitled “Petition Over Criminal Intimidation And Threat To My Life, That Of Members Of My Family, And Cyber Stalking Using Mobile Phone Number 08148228704”.

“It is apparent that Atiku suffers an irredeemable proclivity for playing to the gallery. This is what you get when you cannot put meditation to publicly expressed opinions.

“Same you claimed the President is the most incompetent president in the history of the country, yet, hours afterwards, same you were teary-eyed in petitioning for a privileged presidential security protection for you and your family,” the organisation’s statement read.
