Boko haram threatens Thisday Editor Journalist- See the the Letter

Adeola Akinremi, Thisday Feature Editor

A feature Editor of Thisday Newspaper Nigeria, Adeola Akinremi  has been reportedly threatened by the Boko Haram Sect. Adeola was sent an email on May 10th by the sect but this letter was made known by the cable yesterday. This threat was issued after the journalist visited Adamawa state to investigate killings by the insurgents and the plight of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), and wrote a piece titled, Why Boko Haram don’t deserve our amnesty.

See a  copy of the threat mail signed by an unknown Abu Musab Abul-Barnawi, 

"We have seen your hand against us. Inshallah you will die like other infidels that we captured. You have been joining our enemies. You are made yourself their mouth [sic] but we will get you insha Allah. This is a holy mission for Allah, so stop writing against us. “You’re going too Michika calling yourself a brave journalist, but you’re a coward. We will get you. Its your government that talks amnesty, we are not looking for amnesty. Allah is with us. You’re now a walking dead and a prey to the Lions of Islam from the bullet of a passing car or a nearby rooftop. “We are not asking you to repent, because of your error, we will use your blood to send warning to others. Those people from America and Europe that are using you against our mission will soon know the truth. Our wounded fighters will never give up. they will return to fight for Allah to get their reward. Your soldier will soon know the truth.”

Thisday Newspaper has been attacked by the Boko haram sect in 2012 when their offices in Abuja and Kano were bombed.
