Eniola Badmus Says She Has Been Getting Death Threats For Over Two Months From Anonymous Person

Popular Nollywood actress Eniola Badmus has spoken out after receiving constant death threats from an unknown Instagram user.

Speaking with Sunday Scoop, the plus-sized actress said that although the person sending the threats hasn't made any demand from her, they have, however, promised to end her life anytime they come in contact with her.

Badmus also disclosed that she has officially reported to the police and they are working to bring the person to book. She added that threats like that are part of the prices she has to pay as a public figure.

She said, “The person (sending the death threats) is anonymous and I have been getting his messages for two months. The person has never made any demand of me. The messages say that they would kill me whenever they see me and that anytime I come to Amen Estate (Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos), they would kill me there.

"However, the Instagram page of this unknown person has been reported and pulled down. I am not really scared because God has not given me the spirit of fear. It is just one of those things that happen. I hope that God exposes whoever is behind this.

“I kept quiet initially because I did not take him seriously. I assumed that he was not okay mentally. I am not owing anyone, so I don’t know where the threat is coming from. This is about the first time that I would be getting a death threat. I have made an official report to the police and they are working on it already.

"I don’t want to divulge too much information about their plans. I believe that whoever is behind the threat would be brought to book someday.”

“My sister has been very worried about the threat. When it comes to anything that has to do with me, my family members are always concerned. They were scared and they made sure that we got a lawyer and the police involved. Perhaps, those are some of the prices that one pays for being in the limelight.

"If I was not in the public glare or in the entertainment industry, I don’t think anybody would threaten me this way.”
