London based journalist, Lekan Fatodu, has claimed in an audio telephone conversation he released recently that SaharaReporters founder, Sowore Omoyele allegedly tried to blackmail him.

This is coming as the feud between the two former friends gets messier.

The released audio by Fatodu, had recorded conversation of two male adults, discussing matter concerning Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC).

Fatodu claimed that the voices in the audio telephone conversation was between him and Omoyele and that it served as evidence that the Sahara Reporters Publisher allegedly tried to blackmail him because he did not cave in to his alleged demand of N100 million to bury reports he had against him.

However, the unverified conversations from the audio, revealed plans of the two voices discussion on how they wanted to deal with a case at the EFCC.

Recently, Fatodu led a protest against Omoyele in Ikeja, Lagos against what he termed fake news being allegedly propagated by Omoyele.

But Omoyele waved off the protest, saying it was being sponsored by powerful politicians who hate SaharaReporters for exposing their evil act.
