Mass Poison: Canada Begins Probe Of Nigerian Woman Who Threatens Genocide
Canadian authorities have begun the probe of a Nigerian woman based in Canada, Amaka Sunnberger, who threatened to poison Nigerians of Yoruba and Benin extractions.
In the viral video, the woman who was on a TikTok live with some other persons, threatened to ensure mass killings of the Yoruba and Benin people living in Canada.
A representative of the Toronto Police Service, Sergeant Bassey Osagie, said investigation had begun into the matter.
โThis incident has been reported to the Toronto Police Service and is currently under investigation,โ Osagie said.
OSUN DEFENDER reports that after the identity of the woman was revealed, the House of Representatives petitioned the Canadian authorities, demanding an investigation and prosecution of the woman.

The House of Reps, in a letter to the Canadian government, requested that Sunnberger be prosecuted.
The letter, addressed to the Canadian High Commissioner to Nigeria, Jamie Christoff, said Sunnbergerโs inflammatory statements constituted a direct threat to Nigerians.
The letter read in part, โIn the light of the seriousness of these violations, we respectfully request the following actions: Investigation: an immediate and thorough investigation should be conducted into Ms. Sunbergerโs actions by Canadian law enforcement and appropriate authorities.โ
But Sunnberger while reacting to the lawmakersโ demand, in another TikTok video, dismissed the request for her arrest, affirming that she held a Canadian passport.
She said, โSomebody just sends me a message, say them arrest me, say them wan deport me, with passport? I be Canada pikin.
โSee am now, I dey house, why I go dey lie?โ
