#FreeRhoda: Outrage Grows Over Nigerian Woman’s 18-Month Detention for Condemning Student’s Murder.

Netizens express outrage over the prolonged detention of Rhoda Jatau, a Nigerian woman held for 18 months for condemning the brutal murder of Samuel Deborah. Deborah, a Christian student, was killed by extremists for advising against sharing religious content on WhatsApp. Despite arrests related to her murder, Jatau faces charges of incitement and cyber-stalking. Social media users criticize the justice system’s focus on Jatau instead of Deborah’s killers, calling for her release with the hashtag #FreeRhoda. Concerns about religious freedom and justice in northern Nigeria are amplified, prompting calls for accountability. Police and DSS officials remain unresponsive to inquiries.
