\u201cIt is alleged that: the accused posted online content on or about August 25, 2024, threatening death to specific members of the Nigerian community.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn Sunday, September 1, 2024, Toronto Police arrested Amaka Sonnberger, 46, of Toronto.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe has been charged with: Uttering Threats.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe is scheduled to appear at the Ontario Court of Justice, 2201 Finch Avenue West on Monday, September 2nd, 2024, at 10:00 am in courtroom 107.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf it is alleged a criminal offence was committed (such as assault or mischief) and it is believed to have been motivated by bias, prejudice or hate, the officer-in-charge may consult with the Crown.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf a person is charged and convicted of the offence, the Judge will take into consideration hate as an aggravating factor when imposing a sentence.<\/p>\n

In the viral video, 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 in a tiktok live in response to a Benin and Yoruba community tiktok live where they demanded that they should start killing igbo children anywhere they see them. around the globe<\/p>\n

Hours after the threat went viral, the Chairman, of Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, petitioned Honourable Patrick Brown, Mayor of Brampton, Canada, regarding the threat to kill Yoruba and Benin people without paying attention to what prompted Amaka’s response.<\/p>\n

Speaking in the Pidgin language, Amaka Sunnberger said, \u201cRecord 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis kind of hatred I have for you people will last forever. In all your foods, I will put Otapiapia,\u201d as others at the meeting reminded her of other poisons including Eat and Die, Sniper.”<\/p>\n

\u201cI 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\u2019m in Canada, I\u2019m in Ontario. Hurry up, go fast,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
