An Osun priestess, Yeye Ajesikemi Omolara, has called for a fair and unbiased trial of the traditional religion practitioner and popular Isese activist Adegbola Abdulazeez also known as Talolorun, who was recently arrested and remanded for allegedly burning the Quran and insulting Islamic clerics.
Human rights activist, Omoyele Sowore, has said the Nigeria police arrested Adegbola Abdulazeez, a popular traditional religion practitioner and activist also known as Talolorun, with a fake warrant. According to the candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the 2023 presidential election, the police also asked the state government to allow them to prosecute Talolorun without the involvement of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP).
Adegbola Abdulazeez, a popular Kwara traditional worshipper and activist known as Talolorun (Who is God), who was remanded by a magistrate court in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital, was accused of planning to start a war in the city by "inviting other traditional and idol worshippers to assemble in Ilorin on the 20th of August, 2023", among others.
Prison authorities in Kwara State have denied family members and activists access to Adegbola Abdulazeez, a popular traditional worshipper and activist known as Talolorun (Who is God), who was remanded by a magistrate court in Ilorin. SaharaReporters learnt that Talolorun’s family members and Isese (traditional religion) activists were denied access to him on Saturday.
