OFFICIAL PUBLIC NOTICE / INCIDENT REPORT
This report is made on behalf of a Nigerian woman, a lawful property owner and practitioner of traditional religion (ONÍṢẸ̀ṢẸ).
She legally built a house in Ilorin, Kwara State, which is her constitutional right as a citizen of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
From the beginning of her presence in this Ilorin Muslim community, some individuals openly stated that they did not want an ONÍṢẸ̀ṢẸ practitioner living among them. She was repeatedly threatened and intimidated solely because of her religious practice.
Due to these threats, she reported the matter to the nearest police station in Ilorin. The police summoned the individuals involved and warned them that she has a legal right to live and build a house in any community of her choice in Nigeria.
Despite this police warning, the threats escalated.
She was directly told:
“Since your house is what is keeping you here in our midst, if you refuse to stop your traditional religion practice, get ready to see your house set ablaze.”
She initially considered this an empty threat.
However, on January 1st 2026, while she was away attending the Osun Festival at her other residence, a neighbor urgently called to inform her that her house in Ilorin was on fire.
The house was later confirmed to have been burnt, validating the earlier threats.
This was not an accident.
This was arson following explicit religious threats.
This report is shared:
• For public record
• For her safety
• For accountability
• To notify authorities, media, and human-rights organizations
Nigeria belongs to all Nigerians. No woman should be threatened, attacked, or displaced because of her religion or belief.
Justice will be pursued.
