The managing director of a leading information technology firm in Nigeria, Citadel-Oracle Concept Ltd, Mr Benjamin Joseph, yesterday alleged threat to his life.
The ICT expert, in a Save Our Soul (SOS) message contained in a three-page letter, dated December 18, 2014, through the legal chamber of Mr Ayo Faleti and Co, to the Commissioner for Police in charge of the command, Mr Kola Sodipo, he sought a 24-hour protection from the Oyo State Police Command.
In the letter made available to newsmen in Ibadan on Wednesday, he disclosed that it was the fourth time he would be raising the alarm, following persistent threats to his life and business activities by some individuals who have come to regard themselves as sacred cows and totally above the law.
He said he had to write the command now because a directive by the office of the Inspector General of Police directing that investigation into the threats to his life by four persons and agents of four firms was not acted on since September this year.
He attached a copy of the directive from the IG’s office through the deputy IGP, Department of Criminal Investigation, Abuja and dated September 18, 2014 and signed by the Principal Staff Officer 2 to the IGP, ACP Abubakar Yahaya.
According to him, those behind his current ordeal have continued to threaten him and invaded his business premises, looting the outlet of goods worth millions of naira.
