‘They Placed A Bounty On My Head’ – Sowore Alleges, Name Those Who Allegedly Want Him Dead
Omoyele Sowore, the convener of RevolutionNow Movement and publisher of Sahara Reporters, alleges the Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA) in Nigeria has reportedly placed a bounty on his head, BIGPEN reports.
Sowore, in series of tweet on Wednesday night, claimed that the Defence Headquarter in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital, ordered that he must be arrested or murdered. He is reported to have recently led some group of #EndSARS protesters in Abuja.
The publisher wrote; ”Info reaching me now is that a signal from DIA has put a bounty on my head, that I must be arrested or murdered as they claim I’d resist arrest in the next 24hrs! This is from the Defence HQ here is Abuja! Be it known that this can’t affect the struggle for freedom”.
UPDATE: The plot against me has been on for weeks now, and I’ve been aware until the signal sent to security agencies leaked tonight. The is a businessman linked with the @mbuhari regime who’s threatened me for weeks unending since #endsars started.

Just yesterday @MalamiSan went to an FCT court headed by Justice AB Muhammed to obtain an exparte order against me and @SaharaReporters, he want to make it look like his part of it is “civil” to pretend he wasn’t part of the assassination squad they put together!

Over the week their minions wrote press releases, letters to foreign embassies, @TheNationNews was generous in claiming some “Genuine EndSars” people want me arrested. The @HQNigerianArmy had a team of @twitter influencers on Sunday suggesting I should be assassinated
