Kano, Nigeria
A Kano family has raised serious concerns with authorities and local residents following the alleged abduction and forced religious conversion of their 15-year-old daughter, sources familiar with the matter said.
According to the family, the teenager was reportedly taken from her community under unclear circumstances and later found to have been converted to another religion against her will before being seen in a different part of the state, they claim.
The incident has drawn widespread attention in the local community, with relatives and neighbours calling on security agencies to investigate the circumstances surrounding the teenager’s removal and the alleged conversion.
Family members told reporters they are seeking legal and government intervention to ensure the safety and rights of the young girl.
Local youth groups and civil society organisations are reported to be monitoring the situation closely, urging authorities to act swiftly and transparently.
As of this report, officials from Kano State’s security apparatus or the relevant religious affairs offices are yet to issue an official statement regarding the case.
The matter remains under public scrutiny as calls for justice grow louder.
