Canada-based Nigerian Woman Faces Police Probe Over Under Threats To Poison Yoruba, Benin People

Amaka Sunnberger, a Nigerian woman based in Canada, has become a subject of probe for threatening to poison Nigerians of Yoruba and Benin extractions.

This development was confirmed by a representative of the Toronto Police Service, Sergeant Bassey Osagie.

“This incident has been reported to the Toronto Police Service and is currently under investigation,” Osagie said, according to PUNCH. 

It would be recalled that the House of Representatives and the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission had petitioned the Canadian authorities, demanding an investigation and prosecution of the woman.

Sunnberger, who was noted as living in Ontario, Canada, said she would begin to poison the food and water of Nigerians immediately after she got to her place of work.

Hours after the threat went viral, the Chairman, Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, petitioned Honourable Patrick Brown, Mayor of Brampton, Canada, regarding a concerning matter involving Amaka Patience Sunnberger, a Nigerian national residing in Canada.

SaharaReporters earlier reported that the woman threatened to kill Yorubas and persons of Benin extraction.

Speaking in Pidgin language, the woman who is believed to be Igbo said, “Record me very very well. It is time to start poisoning the Yorubas and the Benins. Put poison in all your foods at work. Put poison in all your water so that you all will start dying one by one. 

“You people will not die one day. You people will fall sick for a long time. I will put Otapiapia (rat poison) inside your waters and foods. You people will never get well. 

“This kind of hatred I have for you people will last forever. In all your foods, I will put Otapiapia,” as others at the meeting reminded her of other poisons including Eat and Die, Sniper."

She continued, “I will put them in all your foods. If I go to work tomorrow, I will put it (poison) in Yoruba people's food. Go and tell the government that I’m in Canada, I’m in Ontario. Hurry up, go fast.

“I will put Otapiapia, I will put Ogbomosho inside your foods. You will start hearing that Yorubas have died, Benins have died. I’m the one saying it. 

“I want Igbos to have a heart of wickedness. You people are too quiet. You are too cool. Enough is enough. If you have a means of killing them, kill them out of the way, because they are too foolish. They are of no use to society. Lots of prostitutes and everything.”
