Isah Liman Kantigi

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in Niger State, Isah Liman Kantigi, has issued a death threat to voters with intention of collecting his money during the election without voting for him.

According to PUNCH, Kantigi issued the threat while addressing his supporters in a viral video, stating he is a generous man and voters should reciprocate the same act to him at the poll.

In the viral video, the PDP governorship candidate addressed his supporters in English and Hausa languages, stating that serious consequences await those who will betray him during the election.

Kantigi warned that those who will collect his money without voting for him will be plagued with nightmares, and cold and would eventually lose their lives.

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.”

Kantigi was a former Chairman of Edati Local Government Area and the ex-Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs to former Governor, Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu.

The PDP candidate was recently in the news after he donated two electricity transformers to Dangana and Duma communities in Lapai.

In November, his growing popularity in Niger State was tested after his candidacy was challenged by an aggrieved party member, Sani Idris Kutigi.

He was, however, affirmed by a Federal High Court, Abuja, on Thursday, as the valid governorship candidate of the PDP for the 2023 governorship elections in Niger.

Justice Zainab Abubakar, in a judgement, dismissed the suit brought by the plaintiff for lacking in merit.
