The governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in Niger State, Isah Liman Kantigi, has been seen in a viral video issuing death threat to prospective voters, who have the intention to collect his money without voting for him in the election.
Kantigi made the threat while addressing his supporters.
Kantigi was a former Chairman of Edati Local Government Area and the ex-Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs under former Governor, Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu administration.
In the 25 seconds viral video trending on social media, the Niger PDP governorship candidate was heard telling his supporters in English and Hausa languages that dire consequences await anyone who betray him at the poll.
While describing himself as a generous man who looks out for others, Kantigi warned that those who collect his money without reciprocating with votes will be plagued with nightmares, and cold and would eventually die.
He said, “If I give you and you spend it, from today, you will be receiving some kind of dream. After receiving the dreams, the next thing is that you will start feeling cold and after that, you will lose your life.”
Vote buying is an offence under the Electoral Act.
