Akpabio Needs To Prove He Didn’t Say Magu Will Use Them For Pepper Soup If Confirmed – MURIC

THE Muslim Rights Concern has said the onus is on the Senate Minority Leader, Godswill Akpabio, to prove that he did not say the acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Ibrahim Magu will use “us for pepper soup” if confirmed.

MURIC, according to media reports, quoted the ex-governor as saying: “Magu wants us to confirm him so he can use some of us for pepper soup.”
Racting, Akpabio in a statement by his Special Assistant Media, Mr. Jackson Udom, described the statement as laughable, and an imagination of the purveyors’ minds.

The Minority Leader challenged MURIC to disclose the location where he made the statement, or who the audience was.

“We would want MURIC to disclose the location where Akpabio purportedly made the statement, the audience he addressed and also provide a record of the interaction before Nigerians would take them and their infantile claim serious. We believe MURIC, as a serious organisation should not be a purveyor of beer palour gossips, that defy reason and logic.

“From the record of proceedings in the Senate on the day Magu was screened, which was streamed live, we are yet to see the scene where the Senate Minority Leader made such non existing statement. We therefore, challenge Mr. Ishaq Akintola, who claimed to be the director of this group to go beyond mere allegations, in order to please his pay master, but should go a step further by providing proofs to buttress his wild and unfounded allegations.

“Those behind this blackmail and campaign of calumny against Akpabio should note that even the coinage of the statement is very much unlike Akpabio. The Senate Minority Leader, even in his very informal discussions, couldn’t have gone that low with such a flawed statement. Akpabio is not a tout, therefore such statement as quoted above couldn’t have been made by the former governor,” it stated.

Firing back, MURIC in a statement by its Director, Prof. Ishaq Akintola, on Tuesday, said rather than making an issue out of MURIC’s statement, Akpabio should rather prove he did not say such and also attend to the crux of the matter it raised.

The statement said: “The Senate Minority Leader, Senator Godswill Akpabio, yesterday reacted to a press statement issued by the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) in which the organization quoted him as saying that Magu wanted Senate to confirm him so that he could use some of them for pepper soup. Senator Akpabio denied making such a statement and challenged MURIC to provide evidence.

“We aver that Akpabio missed the crux of our statement. This would not have occurred if he had taken a good look at the semantics. Our statement was crafted to indicate that we were quoting a third party. That was why we used the adverb ‘allegedly said’ and the adjective ‘alleged utterance’. It means we did not pretend to affirm the statement but left a window for the Senator to either confirm or deny.

“We reproduce the half paragraph here for the avoidance of doubt, ‘A statement credited to Senator Akpabio in which he allegedly said, ‘Magu wants us to confirm him so he can use some of us for pepper soup’ lends credence to our hypothesis. Akpabio’s alleged utterance confirms our worst fears.’

“To bring what people feel or say about public officials to their attention is our duty and a priviledge, to deny or confirm such statements or sentiments is the right of the public official. We have used our privilege. Senator Akpabio has exercised his right.

“The onus is on Senator Akpabio to confirm or deny the statement. He has chosen to deny it and we are satisfied because there is nothing personal for us to pursue. Therefore, we will not press the issue of the statement allegedly made by him any further.

“What the Senator cannot deny is that he has a case of graft before the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) or that he did not oppose the confirmation of Magu during the screening in the red chamber on Thursday. We leave Nigerians to make their own deductions regarding the rationale for the senator’s opposition of Magu’s confirmation.”

MURIC Or Murin should goan sit down.
Onus of proof is on the accuser.

If you are bored like i am, here's what to do place a cube of sugar where ant are prevalent in ur house. Observe as one ant will spot it, the little snitch will then go and report to others. After it has left, remove the sugar so that when the other ants come they will tink the other ant is a liar and will neva trust it again

All these confused useless religious groups that aren't sure of what their mandate is. What's the freaking business of MURIC with senate confirmation of Magu?

And even if Akpabio made the alleged statement, Ehen! And so fucking what? How is that anyone's concern? and most especially, how is that MUrICs business?

Pepper soup? Lol

MURIC is the religious arm of APC that's why they are dabbling into politics.


They are the No 1 most useless Muslim Group in Nigeria

MURIC is now a political wing of APC or Buhari. They should call this Prof to order as he is being too political or what has Muslim Right organization got to do with the alleged statement that has no religions coloration whatsoever.

Muric as a useless organization has never cry against the menace of Fulani herdsmen nor the hunger in the land.



Useless organization that should be banned

Lalasticlala

Very useless, they are.

MURIC - Most Useless Religious Idlers Combined.
That they issued a statement over a mere rumour shows they are unserious and low-rated.

Akpabio's statement challenged them to prove the allegation which is the normal thing to demand.
That Muric replied and inadvertently admitted lack of evidence by claiming they acted on a 3rd party rumour shows they are an arrogant bunch of busy-bodies.

Magu's screening was streamed live. Even if none of their members watched the proceedings, common sense dictates that they first lay their hands on the video and watch to confirm the rumour. That they failed to do this before rushing to the press shows they lack simple basic common sense.
Rather than apologise to Senator Akpabio, they still went ahead to belabour the public with their stuff and nonsense.

Many ignorant nigerians and organizations, MURIC inclusive, are misusing the freedom of speech to malign, embarrass and slander innocent people.
Until they are made to face procecution for libel, most will not learn some lessons.

MURIC group of drunk hypocrites
