The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has reaffirmed its preference for a presidential candidate from the Yoruba Muslim stock.
The group warned that any party that picks a Yoruba Christian as its 2023 candidate should forget Muslim votes.
“No political party should tell us that they cannot find competent Yoruba Muslims”, Professor Ishaq Akintola said on Monday.
A statement by the Director said no Yoruba Muslim ever occupied the State House either as president or vice president since 1960.
MURIC advised presidential aspirants and parties mapping out strategies for the next general elections to heed its call.
Akintola condemned the “stigmatisation galore” for Yoruba Muslims in Nigeria since independence.
The organization claimed they are denied almost all civil liberties, including admission into schools.
Akintola alleged many cannot get international passports, driving licences and voter registration cards because they are asked to remove their hijab for capturing.
He said schools humiliate hijab-wearing female Muslim students while the courts in the South-West are littered with litigations “on this ignoble stereotyping”.
“It is our belief that Yoruba Muslims need federal might to eliminate or at least scale down the tornado of oppression and the Tsunami of anti-Muslim sentiment.
“Only a Yoruba Muslim president who knows what has been happening can do this effectively. Who feels it, knows it”, Akintola insisted.
MURIC added that its position was not a categorical rejection of a Christian presidential candidate in 2023.

Fake News coming from --ipob terrorist

Nairaland, stop giving this idiot relevance by consistent pushing of his many vituperations to front page.

Stop giving deranged fundamentalist relevance except you guys subscribe to his ideology.

As a Yoruba Muslim, I concur

We Yoruba Muslims will never vote for any Christian. We would rather vote a northern Muslim than southwestern Christian

Oponu Mumuric professor

I thought there is nothing like Yoruba Muslims that Yoruba is Yoruba ?

He is speaking on behalf of we Yoruba Muslims and we are the majority in yorubaland. We have the number

God punish muric

Tinubu 2023 Insha Allah

Tinubu is better than osinbanjo, but Tinubu is not better than Atiku.

You see what I have been saying all this while, that the SW is calm all this while is because the Muslims are few, just wait and see in the future

Lunatic!

The supreme leader of Yoruba Muslims have spoken
the God of Tinubu urchins have spoken.

real omoluabis have taken note

God bless real Yorubas
they'll surely conquer these fake Yorubas living among them as so called brothers

Tinubu urchins are not real Yorubas but immigrants from futa jalon that settled in South West

Mumu man!!!!!

You think say you dey wise!!

Siwisheswereesh:
Lunatic!

He is speaking your mind

lol Tinubu urchins dominates yoruba Muslims
unfortunately they have the voice more than real omoluabis (Yoruba Christians and ifa worshipers)

okoo

This is very instructive from MURIC, the slayer of fanatical southern Christians!
Imagine how the Christian Yorubas demanded that one of them become governor in Lagos state in 2015 saying that ever since the return to civil rule in 1999 no Christian has ruled Lagos as governor, inspite of the fact that Lagos is a Muslim majority state.
But same Yoruba Christians would not allow even a Muslim Deputy governor in Ondo and Ekiti states. In many cases they have been denied common commissioner appointments.
It's time to reciprocate the kindness of Yoruba muslims towards their Christian counterparts in 2023!

It’s good to see how you Muslims reason from North to Southwest.

Someday when it’s the turn of Christians, the debt will be repaid in a thousand fold running over.

What a stale ideology

There's nothing like yoruba muslim and yoruba christian.







Yoruba love themselves...

Finally e done set. A new Terrorist organization called MURIC is now blowing up in Yoruba land

Yoruba Christians should keep leaving in self denials and keep fighting their Igbo brothers who have never for once done them or wish them any bad.

Chief if this is your believe then trust me you ain't using your brain I'm so sorry to say.
Despite all that is happening in our nation should we still be brainwashed by religiosity or ethnicity.
We should be more concerned about the qualities of the candidate and not where he/she belongs to politically, ethnically or religion.

Yoruba muslim?.

This is hate speech ! Where is the DSS when we need them the most ?

Foolish terrorist

The rate at which this man displays his idiocy keeps growing at a geometric rate.
