Shakirat Oluwatosin Raji, a US-based Nigerian Muslim advocate, has become the target of cyber bullying and death threats following her advocacy for civil Shari’ah in Yorubaland. The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has condemned these attacks, describing them as barbaric and Islamophobic. Professor Ishaq Akintola, the director of the organization, issued a statement on January 5, 2025, highlighting the severity of the threats faced by Raji. Notably, one of the threats came from an individual known as Nyanmirin Banza Hunter, who issued a death threat on December 20, 2024. Another threat was made by Labia Majora on December 24, 2024, who threatened to report Raji to her employers. In light of these incidents, calls have been made for US security agencies to provide protection for Raji, emphasizing the necessity of civil Shari’ah courts for Muslims in South-West Nigeria [d9f9d3f5].
