JUST IN: Shiite Islamic Group Assassinated Muslim Clerics, Attacked Emir Of Zari by clara472: 7:44pm On Dec 07, 2016


Just days after the Shiite Islamic Movement of Nigeria was declared a terrorist group by the Kaduna state government, more revelations have emerged about the activities of its members led by Ibraheem El-Zakzaky who is still in detention.

The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has revealed that the group actually carried out the assassination of some Islamic clerics and attacked the Emir of Zaria, Shehu Idris.Shiite members clashed several times with security operatives

Before the group clashed with the Nigerian Army, it reportedly held Zaria almost under control with the government accusing its leader of creating another country inside Nigeria.

In a statement titled: ‘MURIC is neither pro-Shiite nor anti-Rufai’, issued on Wednesday, December 7, Ishaq Akintola, the director of the Islamic rights group, said: “Well-meaning Nigerians, particularly from the north where the impact of the group has been felt most, have sincerely intervened and thrown more light on the activities and status of the IMN.

“Fresh information has revealed IMN’s attack on the Emir of Zaria, its alleged involvement in the assassination of some Muslim clerics, its lack of respect for constituted authority, its posturing as a government within a government, its alleged possession of arms, etc.

“In the face of these fresh facts, we are obliged to incorporate the opinions of our members who are up-North. This is necessary in order to carry them along. Who feels it knows it. Those who live very close to the IMN must know IMN better.

“Even while we are not holding brief for the authors of the allegations, MURIC wishes to state clearly, categorically and unequivocally that at no point in time had we been pro-Shiite.

“Neither do we share any doctrinal identity with IMN. Our interest lies in the maintenance of peace in the Nigerian society and the need to avoid creating another monster like Boko Haram.

“MURIC is as worried as every other Islamic organization about the doctrinal differences and heretic inclinations of Shiism.

“But sectarian differences are not limited to Islam. Above all, we are gravely concerned about the self-imposed isolationist disposition of IMN in relation with mainstream Islam in Nigeria.

“We are equally nonplussed by the group’s refusal to recognize officially installed leaders. These are big and questionable minuses for IMN.

“In the light of the above, we affirm that MURIC remains committed to the goals and aspirations of mainstream Islamdom which has been pursuing peaceful coexistence, neighbourliness, tolerance, love, forgiveness and, above all, sacrifice for our great country, Nigeria under the umbrella of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA).”

Daily Post reports that MURIC urged the Shiite group members to retrace their footsteps in character and doctrine.
group, IMN, has been outlawed
MURIC added that the IMN needs better image laundering in Kaduna state and the north in general.”

Advising that efforts must be made to avoid turning IMN into another terror machine like the Boko Haram, Akintola said: “Nonetheless, we stand by our word of caution. Everything possible must be done to avoid turning IMN into another terror machine.

“What we need in Nigeria to get out of the current recession is peace. We also need peace for economic growth and political stability. We cannot afford another Boko Haram.

“As we round up, we appeal to Governor El-Rufai to ignore IMN’s unnecessary verbal war against his administration, avoid further bloody crackdown on the group and concentrate on the good work he has been doing in governance.

“We call on the Federal Government to investigate the serious allegation of possession of arms leveled against IMN. This will rest the controversy surrounding the labeling of IMN as an insurgent group once and for all.”

This is very much unbecoming of Professor Ishaq Akintola. he released a statement yesterday (Titled:MURIC Blasts Kaduna Government For Labelling Shiite IMN “insurgent Group” ) referring to the IMN as "pacific" (meaning non-violent). that was the word contained in his statement. within 24 hours, the same Professor of the same Sunni Islamic group (MURIC) he is speaking on behalf of is claiming "fresh information" (WITHIN 24 HOURS!!!) that the IMN used to kill Islamic clerics (meaning Sunni clerics) in the north. we need to know the names of those clerics and when they were killed. you cannot widely propagate such viewpoint as your own statement and claim with no basis, and still declare that you are "not holding brief" for the authors of the allegations. then why propagate such claims and make a second statement? within 24 hours Professor Akintola is being made to retrace his steps and disassociate himself from the IMN and even went on to launch scathing sectarian attacks on the entirety of the universal or global Shia Islamic faith calling their beliefs "heretical". it is either the professor has been pressured to retrace his steps, or this his second statement is part of his game plan. but from the contradictions in the two statements, it is apparently pressure that made him to issue another statement to neutralize his first.

Some people are claiming its a lie without any counter evidence, that's cool though, somehow they will blame Buhari too for commanding MURIC to give that press release


Non of my business


As long as they are killing themselves and letting other religions have peace of mind, it's good enough for me


Oh and when was the last terrorist attack from boko haram? Everything's gone quiet,

I think is time for Ipob to shield their swords... let God fight their battles for them.

This issue is really divine.
I heard about the division in islam not over a year.
Same division is now threatening the unity of Islam in their northern strongholds...
Could that be a good sign of what is about to come near?
I live that up to people that really think and have conscience.

Am equally observing.

More reason why ipob should do away with ffk.
Afonjas are really chasing confusion in Nigeria...
Watch as akintola is spiting groups together in up north.
Ffk is now serving two roles, turning the Christians against Muslims while recommending for arms for Christians...
He is also pushing ipob with his resources to fight the armed to teeth government knowing fully well that ipob is not a militant or a terrorist group.
Look at fayose! His plan is to turn buhari against PDP when people like ekweremadu and top senators are building bridges and criticizing when necessary for national building. Fayose is doing the opposite only for him to make plans abandoning the party.
Tinubu has tried to turn APC against himself and failed now he is back and am wondering what's in his sleeves...

Afonjas are really our problem in this country, they spite us...
They spite us
ss against SE
Christians against Muslims
North against south
PDP against APC
Groups against government
Muslim against fellow Muslims

This is really bad.
We should thread carefully with this people. They only agree for us to agree then disagree. sad

Buhari hates Christians and wants to Islamise Nigeria according to IPOB and they often on this forum publicly declare their hatred for Islam. Rather than see this as a division in the 'enemies camp',they won't because they are two-faced hypocrites, children of hate.

but how wicked can a people be,you sit in the comfort of your room and constantly spill unguided utterances. Just because they are shittes and for your evil love for the bloody tyrant in Aso Rock,you think killing of over 500 Shittes dosent matter to you,of course they are not the 'Allah' chosen sunnis!.
The retard prof Ishaq of MURIC,whom i have always regarded as a national clown,is indirectly condemning Shittes and there believe,just to please the Wahabbi-Sunni ruling class in Nigeria.
I remember when Shiek Adams and one or two other Imam's where assasinated in Kaduna and Kano,the security at that time made it publicly known to all,that it was the handwork of Wahabbi Sunni sponsored boko haram,who view moderate Imam's as enemy of islams.they prefer extremist like El-Rufai,who once insulted Jesus christ!
