Yoruba Nollywood actor, Jigan Babaoja, has raised concerns over threats to his life following the leak of his personal phone number on social media.
The thespian voiced his concern following the controversy involving a WhatsApp group chat linked to the late singer Mohbad’s death and Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo.
In a post via Instagram on Thursday, Jigan said he has been receiving threatening messages and accused some social media users of harassment and cyberbullying, noting it is a similar situation to that of the late Mohbad.
The movie star called on the Nigerian Police Force to intervene in the situation, warning that he would not be intimidated and was prepared to take legal action against those responsible for the threats.
He said, “This is how they start! This is pure bullying all bcos you want to prove a point! You let my personal number out to your people to keep calling and sending threats to me!
"Exactly what was done to the late Mohbad! @nigeriapoliceforce I’m calling your attention to the number of threats that come to me! Instead of letting you kpai me like you kpai Mohbad, I will start by using all the things in my surroundings to kick against oppression and bullying!
"All these numbers will regret ever coming to this world! Just a few scapegoats and the rest will fondagbe!
“Amount of threats! Clearly shows they will attack me even on the streets! But for the street, I’m fully prepared and I’m aware! But @benjaminhundeyin @nigeriapoliceforce, and all well-meaning Nigerians! Something needs to be done!”
