A human rights activist and publisher of SaharaReporters, Omoyele Sowore, and others were on Monday threatened by an AK-47 wielding policeman in Abuja. The youths were arrested for wearing ‘Buhari Must Go’ T-shirts to the church last Sunday. Sowore who was accompanied by another activist, Deji Adeyanju, was seen in a video obtained by The PUNCH addressing newsmen on the issue. They were approached by a policeman who wasn’t pleased with their presence as he could be heard telling the activists to leave. When his voice fell on deaf ears, he angrily said, “I will kill somebody here,” just as he complained about being captured by a reporter’s camera.
