Adeleke University Persecuting Muslim Students - MURIC by OfficialMURIC: 5:58am On Jun 20, 2019
The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has accused Adeleke University, Ede, Osun State, of persecuting Muslim students in the institution. According to the Islamic human rights organization, the private tertiary institution is serially violating the fundamental human rights of Muslim students in the institution.

This was disclosed in a press statement circulated on Tuesday, 18th June, 2019 by the Director of MURIC, Professor Ishaq Akintola.

“Adeleke University is a serial violator of Allah-given fundamental rights of Muslim students. This institution forces Muslim students to attend church on Sundays. It makes it mandatory for students living in the hostel to attend church every Wednesday and Saturday.

“The practice of any other faith on campus except Christianity is banned. Muslim students must not be seen observing Salat. Hijab is a taboo in Adeleke University. Yet all these Islamophobic practices are smartly hidden from prospective students of the institution until they have paid the exorbitant school fees and can no longer withdraw.

“We call on the National Universities Commission (NUC) to come to the rescue of Muslim students in Adeleke University. It is a religious scam. This institution hides under a non-religious nomenclature to ensnare Muslim students into an enclave of religious apartheid.

“In particular, we invite NUC to take a look at the students’ handbook of this institution, especially pages 7, 49, 50, 56 and 60. These pages, to our mind, contain rules that infringe on the religious freedom of Muslim students. As a regulating body, NUC has a duty to intervene in this matter as part of its oversight function on Nigeria’s universities.

“Such intervention is necessary at this juncture to enhance quality control. We remind NUC that man is body, soul and spirit. These three organs must function without hinderance for students to perform maximally. As things stand today, Muslim students of Adeleke University have been deprived of the spiritual component of their humanity. We therefore call on NUC to investigate this issue as a matter of urgency. Religious repression is a potential threat to peace, law and order.

“MURIC is aware that such practices of religious intolerance exist in a few other private universities. We therefore advise Muslim parents and Muslim students to take necessary precaution. They should investigate very well before picking universities of interest.

“Many private universities do not bear Christian names but they pursue Christian evangelical goals. Worse still, they lack the spirit of tolerance. Muslim candidates who have already chosen private universities where they are likely to become victims of Islamophobia are, therefore, advised to apply for a change of university before it is too late.

“Western education was the weapon used by the British colonialists to coerce Muslims into converting to Christianity in the past. The new trick is to use private universities to achieve the same aim or to compromise willing staff of public universities to do the dirty job. It is neocolonialism pure and simple.

“The children of Muslim victims of religious oppression under the colonialists are today the targets of apartheid private universities. Those who oppressed the father when he was in school are bent on persecuting the children. This is the gospel according to the slave-driver. This vicious cycle must be halted at all cost.

“As we draw the curtain, we warn that private and public institutions where Muslim students are denied their Allah-given fundamental human rights are sitting on kegs of gunpowder. We call on NUC to investigate this allegation of religious persecution in Adeleke University, Ede and take appropriate action if found culpable. It will serve as a deterrent for other neo-imperialists masquerading as higher institutions.”

This accusation must be look into. There is iota of truth in every rumors. I remember in my Primary and secondary school that we are forced to close our eyes on assembly ground during morning devotion infact during that time they'll come after we Muslim to check maybe we really close our eyes. Though we were given the right to lead and pray Islamic way on Friday

A fellow has been removed as President of Men's Fellowship in his church due to allegation by the pastor that he lacks understanding of spiritual things. Prior to his removal, the pastor shared the miracle of how he drove his car with an empty tank from Agungi to Lekki Phase 1. The pastor narrated that his car fuel 'empty' light blinked and the engine went off. And when he prayed the vehicle started. Saturday after, at Men's Fellowship, the fellow that was removed presented a talk in Power Point presentation titled, "Car Fuel Tank Reserve & Their Sizes."

He showed in slides, the owner's manual of pastor's car. That when the car fuel 'empty' light blinks and the engine stops, it is a warning the car has switched to its fuel reserve. That the fuel reserve still holds 15 liters, which can take anybody from Lekki to Sagamu, without prayers.


Note:
Five of the 10 richest pastors in the world live in Nigeria, according to a report from Forbes.

Their net worth ranges from $10 million to $150 million

I believe there's Anwaru Islam, Nasfat, Ansarudeen, Al hikmat university own by Muslims?


Why can't they just go there and STFU! Must they go to a Christian owned school? If you can't obey the rule, go to Muslim university, it's simple.

I can't remember where Christians ever complain of something like this. Why always you?

Wow, my alma mata.

It is true that the institution force student to attend church service( Saturday and Wednesday). In fact, we sign church attendance card (last time I checked) but I think the whole issue has something to do with Supreme Court case. They keep attacking the only known Adeleke family project.

During my time in the school, there was an imam, MSSN, Friday worship ground not far from female hostel. During Ramadan, the school took us to mosque outside school every night for prayer (yes, every night). They made provision for midnight food.

If I have phobia for something, there won't be much space to operate.

I can't say much about the accusations because it is almost three years.

Great Adelekites grin grin

This hate filled man didn't know that Islamic invasion in Nigeria was another form of colonialism too?

This idiot won't come out to condemn Fulani, Boko Haram, ISIS and others but he will always eat sh1t when it comes to attack on Christians.

Islamaphobes have turned christian religion into a super-right that undermines all other religions…their new idea is that christianity can override absolutely anything. That is unacceptable. We are sending strong warning to Adeleke University that this time they are dancing on the edge of
a volcano. Ultimately, they have abused this power for long, it's time for them to loose it. This people have responded to our peaceful nature by terrorizing us. The time to bide and hide is over. We call on authorities to take action, otherwise, this time it won't be "all bark no bite" any more.

Peace.
peaceful nature.... The irony of life. If you interpret anything else, na you know o.

Why must you guys always talk without thinking.
They have these laws clearly written in the school handbook. If you can't cope with the requirements then don't even seek admission to the school for God's sake.
Or they should bend the rules to suit you since you are a Muslim? You guys should stop forming victims abeg. Haba!
Please respect other people's belief and stay in your lane. Very simple and clear.

Peace.[/quote]
