The Muslim Rights Concern, MURIC, has called the attention of the Nigerian Ports Authority, NPA, to attempts by unidentified staff to turn the port to a Christian crusade camp.

The warning was contained in a press statement circulated on Monday by the group’s director and founder, Prof. Ishaq Akintola.

The MURIC cited the example of some senior staff of NPA giving out Christian literature as parting gifts to official visitors to the facility.
The statement reads: “The Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) is now in the habit of giving Christian literature as gifts to its visitors.

“A group of people who visited the port recently were told that they should wait for gifts after their data capture for port pass identity card. To their surprise, the same NPA staff who did their capturing gave them copies of Pastor Chris’ Rapsody.

“This is absolutely unwholesome, unethical and highly demeaning. NPA is now being used for Christian evangelisation. It depicts NPA staff as an idle and unserious bunch. How can a federal facility be used to promote one religion? It is an assault on our sensibilities. It is unacceptable.

“It is unthinkable that the same people who lodge complaints of Islamisation are hell bent on Christianising Nigeria. But whereas we cannot find concrete evidence of Islamisation, there are several proofs of Christianisation and what is happening in NPA is one of them.

“We had cause to complain about the Ikoyi immigration office sometime ago. Visitors are compelled to either participate or watch helplessly as the staff conduct Christian morning devotion in the same spot that those who came for international travelling documents are sitting.

“It is taking religious practice and proselytisation to ridiculous heights. It smirks of desperation. But for what? What is the desperation about? It is also a manifestation of lack of sensitivity for the feelings of people of other faiths.

Morning devotion should not be conducted during official periods and where official duties are performed. Is that what the workers are paid for? Neither should religious literature of any faith be circulated by workers.

MURIC demands investigation of these unwholesome practices. The authorities of NPA should take immediate steps to put a stop to the distribution of Christian literature to unsuspecting members of the public. NPA is a federal facility, not a Christian crusade camp.”

Hello sir, have you tried sharing your own. This people just like unsettling things.

Go to every government facility you will see one mosque there. Nobody has come out to scream yet.
If not for some christians in nigerian facilities that are fighting to create chapel and christian fellowship.

I think it's wise for Muslim people to hide their faces because globally now Islam is just showing it self to be the worst and violent religion.... they should be happy for Christians....

Islam religion for Illiterates
