MURIC faults Adeleke’s commissioners’ list for having 17 Christians, 7 Muslims

The Muslim Rights Concern, MURIC, has faulted the commissioners-nominee list sent by Osun State governor, Ademola Adeleke, for having 17 Christians and seven Muslims.

MURIC, in a statement signed by the Executive Director, Professor Ishaq Akintola, on Monday, said the list has proved the governor to be a secret agent of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, with a licence to oppress Muslims in the state.

Mr Akintola also likened Adeleke to a legendary James Bond, popularly known as 007.

The statement read in part, “We condemn this wanton blockage of privileges that should go to Muslims and their diversion to over-pampered and over-fed Christians in Osun State.

“By deceiving Muslims in the state and engaging in spiritual hide and seek, Governor Adeleke has exhibited qualities odoriferously short in honour and dignity but egregiously long in infamy and bohemianism.

“The goal of Adeleke’s deception is for the perpetuation of the marginalisation, shortchanging, and oppression of Muslims in Osun State.

“Adeleke is a secret agent of the Christian Association of Nigeria.”
