Senator Ben Murray-Bruce, the founder of Silverbird Group, shared a reported recording of popular Nigerian journalist Rufai Oseni threatening to kill controversial author Reno Omokri on Sunday.
The former lawmaker who represented Bayelsa East Senatorial District shared the journalist’s recording on Twitter, urging him to enlighten the public on what he meant by the phrase “take out” Omokri.
He captioned the post:
Young Rufai Oseni, @ruffydfire, would you be so good as to clarify what you meant in the call in which you threatened to “take out” Reno Omokri? As a media proprietor, I am shocked at such a threat coming from a journalist. That is unacceptable!
In another post, Ben called out the journalist after he was met with no response from him to elaborate on his words registered in the recording.
I would like Mr. Rufai Oseni, @ruffydfire to listen to his words again, and enlighten the rest of us on what he means when he says he can be deadly and “take out” Reno Omokri.
