Google PlayDr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu, a renowned Black lawyer and activist based in London, has shared a racist and abusive letter which was sent to her home from a Neo-Nazi terror group threatening to kill her and her family.
Speaking with The Independent’s race correspondent, Nadine White, Dr. Mos-Shogbamimu explained that she had received the letter on Monday (Feb. 20) from a sender professing to be part of National Action, a British right-wing extremist organisation founded in 2013.
Sharing the ordeal with her followers, Dr. Mos-Shogbamimu tweeted: “I have received ‘a serious threat from National Action London’ notifying me of their ‘intention to kill’ me & my family. They name my husband & home address. They don’t consider killing me ‘murder’ they call it an ‘execution’. This letter was through my front door. This is Britain.”
The frankly vile and despicable letter reads: “Shola, you are a constant troublemaker and liar who appears on television frequently. You make a shabby living from criticising and race-grifting against ethnic white Europeans and our culture. We have placed you on our kill list and intend to kill you, your children and your husband. You have gone too far and now it is time for you to pay the price.
“We suggest you leave the UK asap, this is the only way that you can avoid what is coming to you. You need to hide because your details have been circulated to others on the internet, violent nationalist activists, blackshirts and others. It is only a matter of time Adeshola before you receive your punishment, your execution.”
The British-Nigerian academic added that she had also received a series of calls from a unknown number which “hangs up” as soon as she answers. “It happened quite a number of times recently that I felt irked enough to mention to my husband that it was weird/annoying but I didn’t dwell on it,” she wrote online. “It’s unsettling to have my address, children and husband targeted.”
The incident has been reported to the Metropolitan Police, who have been approached for comment. This is a developing story.
