Muslim residents raise alarm over ritual sacrifices placed near Mosque
A video showing several calabashes containing suspected ritual items placed at a junction directly in front of a mosque has sparked concerns among Muslim residents in the area.
In the video, a man speaking on behalf of the community expressed frustration, claiming that similar incidents had been reported to the police in the past, but officers allegedly declined to intervene, citing freedom of religion.
“Early this morning, we found several calabashes containing sacrifices at a junction in front of our mosque. The last time we caught people doing this and took them to the police station, the police said it was none of their business and that there is freedom of religion in Nigeria. What kind of religion is this?” he said.
The incident has generated mixed reactions online, with some users defending the placement of the items as a form of traditional or religious practice protected by law, while others condemned it as an act capable of causing tension and desecration of sacred spaces.
