Muslim Rights Concern, MURIC, has again attacked the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, in the North over the recent kidnap of nine children from Kano State.

Recall that MURIC had described the abduction of nine Muslim children in Kano and their alleged conversion to Christianity as kidnapping for Christ.

In its reaction, Northern CAN described MURIC’s statement as ‘reckless, irresponsible, derogatory and provocative utterances.’

However, in a statement to DAILY POST on Monday, MURIC maintained its earlier position on the matter, insisting that CAN should put its house in order.

MURIC’s statement was signed by its director, Professor Ishaq Akintola.

It added, “There is incontrovertible evidence that Muslim children have been kidnapped, converted to Christianity and sold into slavery. It is not the Kano 9 alone.

“There are others. There is also indubitable evidence to prove that it did not start yesterday. What is Northern CAN trying to tell us? They are chasing shadows.

“In our statement last Monday, we separated good Christians from bad ones. We also made it clear that we have both the good and the bad among Muslims too. Here are our exact words: ‘We are aware that not all Christians are involved in this criminal behavior.

“Many adherents of Christianity are decent and peace-loving. Such Christians will never descend so low as to seize, convert and sell Muslim children.

“Instead of joining hands with us to condemn the bad ones among us, Northern CAN is seeking to silence us. That is a tall dream. We advise Northern CAN to put its house in order and stop blaming MURIC.

“Afterall, we did not mention anything about kidnapping for Christ until the issue of Kano 9 occurred and the revelation has exposed other similar cases.

“We advise Northern CAN to launch a campaign of love and harmony in the churches. There is an urgent need to deradicalise Christian elements particularly in the Middle Belt region where Muslims are being killed and dumped inside mysterious ponds and narrow wells.

“The same advocacy should be taken to South Eastern Nigeria from where syndicates sponsor sleeper cells to Northern Nigeria to abduct, convert and sell Muslim children into slavery.

“Enough of denials and sentimentalities. Northern CAN should stop defending the indefensible. Its current body language is not remorseful. Your fellow Christians kidnapped Muslim children and converted them to Christianity.

“The Muslims complain but instead of consoling them and checking your members you are firing at the victims from all cylinders. We know you very well. This has always been your style. You never own up.

“We warn that Northern CAN should not drag Nigerian Christians into a controversy that involves only those who are in the dirty business of kidnapping Muslim children for conversion to Christianity.

“We hold Jesus (peace be upon him) in very high esteem and our statement was not intended to malign him. No true Muslim will do that.

“Extremist Christians can kidnap Muslims for Christ. That does not mean that Christ is involved. In fact Christ did not send them. They are only being more Christian than Christ himself.

“Jesus never taught men to be wicked. He taught love, kindness and righteousness. It is highly mischievous of Northern CAN to attempt to whip up sentiments over mere semantics.

“We find it difficult to believe CAN’s words, ‘No Christian has associated Muslims with such criminal acts. We only cry for our own who are victims’. Really?

“This is a false claim and Nigerians know better. What of all the allegations against us in the early days of Boko Haram attacks on churches?

“On a last note, we invite Northern CAN to put its house in order and join hands with the authorities in fishing out remaining sleeper cells for the kidnapping and conversion of Muslim children to Christianity.

“We can all coexist peacefully but we must first eschew parochialism and address issues objectively. We can change this atmosphere of mutual suspicion if only we can be sincere with ourselves.”

Muric is becoming a noise making association.

This dirty,con headed,attention seeker needs to be tamed
In Christianity we don't do force conversion rather you seek him

“....There are many instances where Christian girls were abducted, forcefully converted to Islam and married off by criminals in Northern Nigeria.

In some of these cases, the police either refused to act, or turned blind eyes.Will it be right to accused all Muslims for the action of such criminals? The answer is no..."

MURIC is totally useless as well as CAN.

From looting America, now to looting Kano and their children. Na wah for Ibo sha...una dey try.

Thank God these children were in Onitsha, and not Abiriba. No be wetin we dey talk now for dey table....their knuckles and ears and tongue would already be oiled and pepper souped!

I hear there are still about 45 children not yet recovered and known to have been sold off to SE.
Gaddem!

This MURIC director is gradually loosing his marble...

This country done taya me..... useless people.

CAN has finally responded to MURIC and has given it relevance.

MURIC is now an important organization.
CAN needs to pray to God for forgiveness because it has now given MURIC what it had always wanted.

It's hard to take back what has been given.

This Muric should shut up!!

Boko Haram kills for Muhammad abi?

Nonsense

Muric and Can are two big headaches we have in this country.

a good Samaritan rescued destitute children in the streets of kano and took them down south to give them a better and you guys are making noise? Why can't the muric man go and take those destitute children's and give them a better life? All he does is make noise all over the media while they are currently recruiting female children on hijab for suicide bombing.

What are you calling mods for? To help you do what? You want to deny cannibalism in Abiriba?

I have lengthy scholarship article written by clergies and travellers....their description is even more grotesque. I will load it here if that would help your stress.

Keep them to yourself...I don't need them!

Your first statement is sickening,,,there was absolutely no need bringing it here!

Wetin concern me and Muric?

Akintola is dumb as far Im concerned. His comments here are legit though.

It has relevance on this topic. We are talking of kidnap and traffic. You have baby factory for same reason. Reports have surfaced of restaurants serving in human meat in SE. So there is relevance when 45 children are missing. Very significant indeed.

Lol .. The topic alone can make one choke with laughter The body of the message will now show you how people can be so dumb

MURIC, are you mad? This was how Aunty Kemi Olunloyo started from Simple Madness to Complex Madness, now she is on Chronic Madness.

I am a Muslim and as a good Muslim, I won't watch why you all run nakked at the market square or market rectangle.

Is this nonsense you are spewing part of what our Prophet (SAW) taught us? Is this how to love your neighbor as yourself? Is Isa (Jesus) not one of our first class prophets? Don't be unfortunate oooo.

How many destitute CHRISTIAN children has Northern or Eastern CAN helped in the EAST?

Are you afraid to know the truth?

BroOptimist:

because you guy are not interested in helping humanity. The more of those children in the south the lesser the number of would be suicide bombers.
