Strictly speaking, it was a threat to life and a strategy to ruin JP2025. Fortunately, she was en route to Tanzania for my wedding, which didn\u2019t give her the opportunity to read the threat letter till her return.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe shall eventually detect the face of the delivery agent and show the public and the police at the right time, even though more CCTV has been mounted both in her office and at home. The unfortunate incident of yesterday, 8th July, 2025, is their Plan B as their plans to ruin JP2025 failed woefully! A close look and reading at the threat letter, it read in parts, \u2018that in the next three months, they would be monitoring us\u2019!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWondering an office my mother owned for eight years! This is deep, while a lot of questions are begging for answers and investigations. So much has been happening that I can\u2019t even talk about it here, but I just want to put it out here. You can\u2019t silence my mother with all of these threats and criminal acts. God is stronger than any evil, and time will surely tell,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n<p>This is not the first time the Ojo family has faced threats in recent months.<\/p>\n<p>In June, Iyabo Ojo had a public spat with Tanzanian blogger Mange Kimambi, who accused Priscilla and Juma Jux of distracting the Tanzanian public during a critical election season with their \u201cstupid content.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kimambi warned the couple to lay low and not derail ongoing political activism, adding that their posts were serving government interests.<\/p>\n<p>In response, Iyabo defended her daughter and her in-laws, calling out the blogger for trying to intimidate her family.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m appalled by your audacity! Calling their content stupid and trying to drum up fear and intimidation is unacceptable. Keep my daughter out of your affairs. She doesn\u2019t need you to love her.
