Popular Chief Imam Accused Of Witchcraft Beaten To Death

Kwara Community Residents Beat Chief Imam To Death, Police Detain Three Suspects

Some angry residents in Sokupkpan community, Edu Local Government Area of Kwara State, have reportedly lynched the Chief Imam of the area, identified as Abdulahi Audu, for alleged involvement in the death of a resident, Ibrahim Gana.

According to multiple sources who spoke with SaharaReporters on Wednesday, the violent incident occurred after Gana, before his death, accused the Chief Imam of being responsible for his deteriorating health.

Gana was said to have repeatedly told people that he frequently saw the Chief Imam attacking him in his dreams, claiming the cleric was the spiritual cause of his illness.

The source explained that as Gana’s health worsened, suspicion and tension spread throughout the community.

“People started believing that the Chief Imam was behind Gana’s sickness because Gana insisted he saw him several times in his dreams. When Gana eventually died, some angry youths concluded that the Imam was responsible,” the source said.

On Wednesday, the tension escalated into a mob violence.

The Chief Imam was attacked by a group of residents allegedly led by three men identified as Mohammed Shaba, Mamudu Gana, and Ndakpotun Issa.

The attackers allegedly beat him to death in broad daylight despite attempts by a few community elders to intervene.

“The mob descended on the Imam, accusing him of killing Gana through witchcraft. They beat him until he died."

Authorities from the Tsaragi Police Division were said to have quickly mobilised to the scene after receiving reports of the killing.

The source told SaharaReporters that the police arrested the three prime suspects believed to have led the mob attack.

“The police have arrested three suspects so far — Mohammed Shaba, Mamudu Gana, and Ndakpotun Issa — who were alleged to have played key roles in the lynching,” the source added.

Following the incident, the remains of the slain Chief Imam, Abdulahi Audu, were buried according to Islamic rites on Wednesday evening, amid tears and tension in the community.

However, the Kwara State Police Command has yet to issue an official statement on the killing as of the time of filing this report.

Prof. Wole Soyinka, Nobel Laureate has described U.S. President Donald Trump as a “petty-minded dictator” whose rise to power fuelled hate-driven violence and worsened racial tensions in the United States.

Speaking in an interview with BBC News Pidgin on Facebook on Wednesday, Soyinka said Trump’s presidency exposed the “dark side” of America and emboldened acts of hatred, particularly against minorities.

“This is a petty-minded dictator. You see how he deals with his objects of hate,” Soyinka said.

“We saw that dark side of the American side. There were more killings, extrajudicial killings by the police of black people, of minorities, during that build-up, during the campaign, and on account of hate rhetoric, the hate rhetoric of this individual,” he added.

The Nobel Laureate noted that Trump’s campaign rhetoric normalised hate speech and created a climate of intolerance that had lasting consequences.

Soyinka recalled that he had earlier warned about Trump’s leadership style, predicting that one of his first actions as president would be to target immigrants.

“I saw it and I said, listen very carefully, and you can go and check this, I said, ‘When that man comes to power, the first thing he will do is cancel even the green cards’,” he said.

The literary icon, who has often criticised authoritarian tendencies in global politics, maintained that Trump’s administration reflected a deep moral and cultural decline within American society, particularly in its treatment of minorities.
