A property at Soka area of Ibadan belonging to Yoruba activist, Chief Sunday Adeyemo Igboho was reportedly set ablaze by yet to be identified men.
But the fire was later put off by residents at the area.
The incident allegedly occurred early morning on Tuesday.
He was said to have since moved away from the property, but multiple people, including children, were said to be present when the house was attacked.
Sunday Igboho has been at the center of attention since after issuing Fulani herdsmen quick notice to vacate vast lands in Oyo State. His action was condemned by President Muhammadu Buhari, who ordered police to use lethal force against him and his followers if necessary.
It was not immediately clear those responsible for the attack, which could potentially escalate ongoing tension around Fulani herders in southern Nigeria.
Mr. Igboho did not immediately answer calls seeking comments about the incident. A police spokesman in Oyo said he was not aware of the fire.
