TheSameGuy:
He acknowledged that, but do you think public institutions should be sited in such venue?

You're biased 50 years old man

Who sited the public institutions there? The government or RCCG? Your fight should be against those.

The question people should ask is "what is RCCG campground meant for?" Is it a public estate or community like you have in Nigerian towns?

Lastly, why didn't Muric say anything about a Muslim president after another Muslim president is rounding off office and this time with a Muslim VP o?

Wetin be muric own all the time, don't they have other banks aside the redemption camp areas? Must we put politics in everything we do in this country? Can a non Muslim enter a mosque?
If we can't leave as one, then separate this entity in peace.

They're not fighting RCCG, it was clearly stated. Read well.


Again, MURIC can't say anything about same Faith ticket because it's for anyone to chose to or not to vote the ticket.

Upliftment101:
MURIC kicks as RCCG allegedly bars Muslim from redemption camp, demands prompt intervention.

The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has expressed displeasure over denial of Muslims entrance to facilities and institutions inside the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) camp on Lagos-Ibadan expressway by the church.

The Islamic group is alleging that Muslims are not allowed into the redeem camp to transact business in their banks or to check their WAEC, JAMB and other examination centres.

The MURIC Director, Prof. Ishaq Akintola, who said this on Monday, also demanded the relocation of examination centres from the RCCG camp.

“Our office has been inundated with complaints from Nigerian Muslims who have been denied access into the Lagos-Ibadan expressway camp of the RCCG.

Among the complainants are Muslims who registered for the Joint Admissions Matriculation Board (JAMB), the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) as well as other examinations.

Attempts by the candidates to enter the RCCG camp in order to check their examination centres are always rebuffed by RCCG security men who turn them back at the gates with clear messages that Muslims are persona non grata inside the camp.

“The second group of Muslims who are not allowed to enter are those who opened bank accounts in some of the banks located inside the camp like Eco Bank, Unity, Guaranty Trust Bank, FCMB, United Bank for Africa, Zenith and Access Bank. This ugly trend has been on for quite some time but the complaints have increased in number recently,” Akintola said.

According to him, the development is distasteful and disturbing and that it is interesting to note that this kind of stereotyping with Muslims as the victims is happening in Yorubaland.

“It is even more interesting to note that those behind this obnoxious practice are Yoruba Christians while the victims are Yoruba Muslims. Those who talk about religious tolerance being rampant in Yorubaland have therefore missed the point.

“But the difference is the case in matters concerning religion where they operate as Christian or Muslim groups or as corporate entities. The same Christian teacher who lives in the same house with many Muslims without any problem is the same teacher who will snatch the hijab from the head of a female Muslim student in the school.


“Simply put, there is no religious tolerance in Yorubaland. That is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

“The RCCG camp saga cited above is one good example. RCCG has used opportunities at its disposal to build a big camp on Lagos-Ibadan expressway. It has also equipped the camp with necessary infrastructural facilities including a university, schools, clinics, banks, residential houses.

“MURIC acknowledges the right of RCCG to do all these but at the same time members of the public should be given access to them. Failure to allow that access robs RCCG of an important quality and role in social relations, namely, neighbourliness and service to the people. Afterall many other entities have such facilities and keep them open to the public.

“As a way forward, we demand, first and foremost, the relocation of all public examination centres from the RCCG camp. This camp should be delisted by WAEC, JAMB, NECO and other examination bodies for practising religious apartheid.

“Any individual or institution that applies to examination bodies to host examinations must give access to the public, particularly the candidates. Anything to the contrary is arbitrary and alien to the culture of education. A situation whereby candidates of a particular religion are shut out of the premises of the examination venue is unfair, unjust and unacceptable by any standard.

“We advise Muslims to stop going inside the RCCG camp. It is private property where Muslims are not welcome. Muslims residing in the vicinity should patronise banks and other business concerns located outside the camp.

However, we warn that banks and other business concerns located within RCCG camp may start losing their Muslim customers if they continue within RCCG camp. Our advice to the banks id to engage RCCG authorities in dialogue on this matter,” Akintola said.

RCCG is yet to react to MURIC’s claim.
I must confess that MURIC is a fool and a castrated agba.ya. Just look at the borderline he took the narrative through when he knew he can not pin down RCCG religious-wise. He quickly veered via ethnicity.

MURIC, you a compound fool and a Yoruba divider.

There are Muslims in the RCCG schools in the Camp. There were many Muslims in their University when the Campus was within the Camp. They never complain because they know they have to go by the rules and they comply. The Camp was set up for a purpose with their own funds not public funds. Those who can't comply with their rules should go elsewhere. Same way a non Muslim will not go to a Muslim praying ground if he/she can't comply with their rules. Redeemers do have a right to protect themselves. The Owo attack is still fresh in the mind of Christians.

Aren't there banks in Mowe Town?

WAEC should create a center outside the Camp for easy access.
