Imo Shrine Dispute: Traditional Worshippers Accuse Tiger Base Police, Christian Groups of Torture, Midnight Raids and Religious Intolerance
A long-running religious conflict in Uru, Isi Ogwa autonomous community of Imo State has resurfaced, as traditional worshippers under the Nde Odinala Uru accuse community leaders, Christian groups and the notorious Tiger Base police unit of arrests, torture and intimidation. The crisis, which began in 2006 after the destruction of a sacred shrine during a Christian crusade, allegedly escalated into midnight raids, prolonged detention, extortion and human rights abuses. Victims described the Tiger Base facility as a “dungeon,” alleging torture, overcrowding, and psychological trauma, while insisting the crackdown was driven by religious intolerance. Community leaders have denied orchestrating the arrests, but civil rights advocates are calling for urgent investigations amid growing scrutiny of Tiger Base operations.
