Those Being Described As Terrorists Are Building Schools, Hospitals, Helping Nigerians – MURIC

An Islamic human rights organisation, the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has appealed to the Buhari government to ignore the allegation made by the visiting Turkish leader, Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Recall that Erdogan had told the Nigerian media that Turkish terrorist organisations that tried to remove him from office were in Nigeria.

But MURIC, in a statement signed by Ishaq Akintola, its national director, advised Buhari to only key into the pragmatic gains of Erdogan’s visit rather than dissipate energy on a wild-goose chase.

MURIC said that those groups being described as terrorists by Erdogan have been in Nigeria for over 20 years building primary, secondary schools, universities, hospitals, engaging in humanitarian services, assisting poor Muslims to meet religious obligations like hajj and sacrificial animals.
