Daar communications plc., owner of AIT and RayPower FM, is threatened with attack by a group which identified itself as Coalition Of Northern Nigeria Muslim Youths.
It should be recalled that Africa Independent Television (AIT) last month aired a controversial documentary about the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.).
The 55-minute film titled “The Real Buhari” depicts what was called by one of the social media users “the wickedness and atrocities committed by Buhari” when he served as a military Head of State.
The broadcast triggered many reactions, including the one shared by Buhari himself.
The APC candidate responded:
“What again am I still going to say? I have been moved to tears reading and seeing how young Nigerians who are even less than 30 years are picking holes and fallacies from the official lies told about me, about Tunde, about Atiku, Soyinka, my ex-late wife, my wife, my late children and the good history of Nigeria.”
Apparently, the saga with this documentary is not over yet. AIT reports that Daar’s investments group in the Northern Nigeria has recently received a treat letter from the Coalition. The group members vowed to unleash violence on Daar communications staff and investments if Buhari does not emerge winner of the postponed elections.
In a letter issued by one Abdulkadir Idris the group allegedly accused the company of crossing a deadly line in its operations.
Daar communications broadcast facilities which are AIT and RayPower operate in some states in the north.
