A disturbing incident from Odida Ogidi in Anambra State has sparked outrage after a woman was reportedly evicted from her late father’s house by her brother’s son, leaving her stranded and helpless.
According to circulating reports and a viral video on social media, the matter was taken before a customary court, where the young man claimed he built the house and that his father’s sister was only a tenant. The court upheld his claim, resulting in the woman’s eviction.
Witnesses say the victim, described as uneducated and unable to mount an adequate legal defense, had no means to challenge the ruling. Her current condition has drawn sympathy from residents and online users, many of whom are calling for justice.
In response to the growing public concern, the case has been forwarded to the Anambra State Commissioner for Women Affairs, Mrs. Ify Obinabo, for urgent intervention. She is expected to review the circumstances surrounding the eviction and determine appropriate steps to protect the woman’s rights.
The situation continues to attract attention across social media as Nigerians demand fairness and a thorough investigation.
