THREATENED BY ASSASSINS, NIGERIAN BROADCASTER CRIES OUT (READ TELEPHONE THREATS)

As news of the killing of veteran journalist, Dimgba Igwe filters with allegations that he might have been murdered, a Nigerian female journalist, Miss Chiagozie Okolo recounts an experience with her would-be assassins.

I had a funny experience which I would want to share. So I was in the office getting ready for my shift when my phone rang. The following dialogue ensued
Me: Hello Caller: we have been paid to eliminate you
Me: Hello, who is on the line?
Caller: I said we have been paid to assassinate you
Me: Do you know whom you are talking to? (at this point, I hung up) The call came again. And I picked once more. This time, he talked first his voice graver than before
Caller: Are you not Chichi Okolo? You work with Metro fm, you just recently got back from the states?
Me: Yes I am
Caller: We were paid to eliminate you. As we speak, we have your complete info. Your picture is before us.
Me: So what do you want me to do about that?
Caller: Don't fuck with us (there were background noises of people who sounded so gruffy)
Me: to borrow your language I’m not fucking with you. I just asked a simple question, what do you want me to do about that?
Caller: Good. We conducted our own investigations. And found out you are innocent of all the accusations levelled against you. So we changed our mind
Me: You have done your research well, no doubts. But you have not answered my question. What should I do about it?
Caller: Are you ready to play the ball?
Me: What ball?
Caller: Don't fuck with us
Me: I’m not fucking with you. Now since you’ve conducted your investigations and found that all you were told about me were lies, why not take your money and go?
Caller: You have to settle me and my boys 
Me: Please in what way?
Caller: It might interest you to know that one of your colleagues paid us for this job. We can even divulge the person’s identity to you 
Me: Please what kind of assassin are you that you want so much to betray the person who sent you to kill me?
Caller: We are not here to joke!!!
Me: If you don’t mind, please don’t call this line again. I have more important things to do. Please go look for job.
Caller: Send me N400 recharge card. (at this point I hung up)

(This would be the second call from scammers in two weeks)
