The Osun State Chapter Chairman of Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), Dr. AbdulAzeez Ademokoya, is enraged over an “audio tape insulting Allah, Islam, the Qur’an, and Prophet Muhammad, an effrontery more dangerous than one could imagine and which no sane Muslim can stomach.”
Ademokoya is an esteemed leader; his comment about “no sane Muslim” accepting an insult to Muhammad and Islam sends a message to his following. Vast numbers of Muslims who are conditioned to believe that insults to their religion are a severe crime are flooding into the West.
Ademokoya is demanding that Pastor Akintaro Joshua be arrested; his comments are claimed to be so intolerable that they “are capable of plunging Osun State and the entire South West Nigeria into chaos and religious war.” Extreme violence has already begun as a result of Pastor Joshua’s “offence,” yet what exactly he said isn’t spelled out.
The mission of Muslim Rights Concern, according to its Facebook page, appears to completely contradict the reality of what the organization is about:
To protect, project and promote the rights of Muslims and others as well as to re-engineer the mindset of Muslims towards the preference for dialogue and the rejection of violence.
Insults to Muhammad and Islam are not tolerated in Islam; see the massacre at Charlie Hebdo and the beheading of teacher Samuel Paty for insulting Islam.
“Nigeria: Blasphemy – Muric Demands Arrest of Pastor in Osun,” by Abbas Jimoh and Ahmed Mohammed, Daily Trust, May 22, 2022:
The Osun State Chapter of the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has urged the security agencies and well-meaning Nigerians to act on the alleged misdemeanours of one Pastor Akintaro Joshua Ojo, over his recent utterances, which are capable of plunging Osun State and the entire South West Nigeria into chaos and religious war.
The MURIC Chairman, Osun State Chapter, Dr. AbdulAzeez Ademokoya, said Saturday in a statement that few days into mourning Deborah Samuel, whose brutal killing MURIC condemned, a pastor by name Akintaro Joshua released an audio tape insulting Allah, Islam, the Qur’an, and Prophet Muhammad, an effrontery more dangerous than one could imagine and which no sane Muslim can stomach.
He said that Akintaro did not only “release his rancorous and venomous audio” but went ahead to include his two mobile numbers.
He therefore urged the Osun State Government, the DSS, all security agencies and especially the Commissioner of Police in Osun to immediately arrest the said culprit and charge him to court for his blasphemous positions.
Meanwhile, the Bauchi State Police Command has ordered an investigation into the crisis that erupted in the state over alleged blasphemy resulting in injuries and the destruction of 11 buildings.
The State Commissioner of Police, CP Umar Mamman Sanda, confirmed the incident …

A very sad comedy watching a country and its citizens who were conquered by a vast Cult acting as if they were the ones who started it 1400 years ago.These Black people were conquered,enslaved and now brainwashed into its system.Watching this Cult operate on this planet makes me deep down truly Hate Islam.The worst part is my government imports them by the hundreds of thousands.We need officials who see the light and not be drawn to the dark.

It would be really great if all Christians could immediately leave nigeria as it is not possible to live with people whose sole purpose in life is to make other people miserable…through rape and murder and destruction of property.
mozlums have no self control. And perhaps, there are no ‘sane’ mozlums. Except that insanity in Law…at least in the U.S….means the perp does not understand right from wrong when the crime is being enacted.
mozlums know others are against their behaviors, but just don’t give a hoot for the rights of others.
