Famous Nigerian music video director ThankGod Omori (TG Omori) has claimed that his safety and security have been threatened after he publicly shared his opinion on same-sex relationships.
TG Omori sparked controversy over the weekend when he explicitly stated his view:
“Having same gender s*x is evil,” he wrote on X.
The cinematographer has now posted a follow-up, claiming he is receiving death threats after a magazine, Zikoko Mag, allegedly accused him of using the controversy to promote his brand.
He accused the media house of risking his safety:
“This is a media house trying to set me up and risk my life by gaslighting a global community they serve to blacklist me for speaking my truth in accordance to the laws of the federal republic of Nigeria.”
He confirmed the severity of the backlash he is facing:
“De@th threats and wishes have been sent to me day n night, threatening my safety n security as a citizen, since after this article was published by @Zikoko_Mag,” he wrote on X while quoting the magazine’s article.
