This is Nigeria’: Another Muslim group tackles MURIC, says even Christians are not provoked
lifestyle.ng Jun 5, 2018 5:07 PM
Shortly after the Muslim Rights
Concern (MURIC) asked Folarin ‘Falz’ Falana to withdraw his ‘This is Nigeria’
video, a group known as Muslim Against Terror has defended the artiste.

The group says MURIC does not
have an understanding of veil usage.

In the video, girls wearing hijab
are seen dancing ‘shaku shaku’, hence the controversy.

While addressing the reactions
that trailed the video, Falz had explained that the girls were a representation
of the abducted Chibok girls still in Boko Haram captivity.

In a statement countering that of
MURIC, Muslim Against Terror asked if Ishaq Akintola, director of MURIC, would
“prefer watching the ladies in the video dressed in body-hugging mini skirts
and shaking their bountiful parts??

It read: “In clear contradiction
to what MURIC’s Professor Ishaq Akintola claimed, Islam or Muslim was NEVER
mentioned in the video and the veil is not owned by Islam but worn by anyone
who so feels, hopefully to the pleasure of Muslims and worn by nuns and
sometimes forcibly doused by terrorists on their captors as happened in the
Chibok case.

“Where did Ishaq see Islam or
Muslim in this video?

“Was this subvert threat of a
possible repeat of radical and meaningless, unjustified violence by misguided
Islamists in the past, a means of merely defending the Buhari administration
possibly negatively affected by the viral video and defending Fulani
herder-. terrorism by attempting to present the video as religiously
provocative? The video was not.

“If at all the video provoked any
religion it was the Christian faith, by ridiculing pastors casting out demons
via grabbing female breasts, and also laying direct attacks at pastors involved
in the establishment of universities which their congregations cannot attend.”

Instead of threatening Falz with
legal action, the group urged MURIC to focus on the issues raised in the video.

“As regards truths of value in
the video, there were very many that seemed not to be digested by Professor
Ishaq, including: that the people are extremely poor, medical facilities are
poor, that we operate a predatory neocolonial-capitalist system fueled on fraud
and exploitation, bedeviled with institutionalized corruption, that criminal
cases are settled in police stations and not courts, police station closing by
six, no electricity, youth work multiple jobs and yet are called lazy by the
president.”

The group urged that MURIC be
careful of the propagation of sensitive messages.
