Plateau Man murdered by a mob for allegedly engaging in homosexuality

On May 26, 2025, a tragic incident unfolded in Jenta, Mangoro, Jos North Local Government, Plateau State, where a married businessman, Mr. Sani Nagoda was murdered by a mob for allegedly engaging in homosexuality. This shocking event raises critical questions about societal norms, human rights, and the consequences of intolerance.

Mr. Sani Nagoda, 38, was a Muslim businessman and father of two. His life took a tragic turn when he confided in a family member about his sexual orientation, which ultimately led to his untimely death. In many conservative societies, homosexuality is not only frowned upon but can also lead to extreme punishment, particularly under Sharia Law, which influences local customs and community behavior.

After Mr. Nagoda disclosed his sexual orientation. The information was leaked, leading to a mob assembling outside his home. The violence escalated quickly, with locals accusing him of violating Sharia Law.
At approximately 6:00 a.m, a mob invaded his home, brutally attacking him in front of his wife and children. The violence was a public display of the community’s intolerance and the potential consequences of revealing personal secrets.
Mr. Nagoda succumbed to his injuries before reaching the hospital. According to Islamic tradition, he was buried the same day, highlighting the urgency and sensitivity surrounding the situation.

This incident raises pressing questions about the safety and rights of individuals in communities where cultural and religious beliefs clash with personal identities. It serves as a stark reminder of the dangers faced by those who are marginalized and the urgent need for dialogue around tolerance and acceptance.

The tragic fate of Mr. Sani Nagoda serves as a call to action for society to address the issues of intolerance and the need for greater understanding and support for the community, especially in regions where cultural stigma persists.
