Fani-Kayode: Defection Has Debunked Claims Of Buhari’s Islamic Agenda – MURIC

Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), has said that it is vindicated with the defection of Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, a chieftain of the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and a bitter critic of President Muhammadu Buhari (PMB), to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The group which has itself been supportive of President Buhari said that Fani-Kayode’s defection has vindicated its claim that there was no truth in the claims that the Buhari administration has a Fulanisation or Islamic agenda.

MURIC’s declaration came in a press statement issued on Sunday, 19th September, 2021 by the group’s director and founder, Professor Ishaq Akintola.

“This is a man who has brazenly supported secessionists, irredentists and separatists. Nigeria drifted to the precipice of war and destruction as a result of the agitations of the groups supported by him. But today, FFK in his new camp is most likely to promote a united Nigeria. Perhaps he can persuade some of his former co-travellers to do a rethink. In short, Nigeria stands to gain more from FFK’s volte-face.

Why MURIC Is Applauding Fani-Kayode

“Just as courtesy demands that we appreciate PMB for his patience and fatherly dispensation towards his critics, chivalry demands that we stand up for FFK today and we call on all Nigerians to do same, to forgive, to forbear, to show understanding.

“Perhaps this new development will enable all of us to see that claims of Islamisation and Fulanisation exist only in the figment of imagination of its authors. Afterall the man who started it all eventually came to Aso Rock and he was neither Islamised nor Fulanised. 

“We assert clearly, unequivocally and unambiguously that MURIC is vindicated. Fani Kayode has seen in PMB what MURIC saw eight years ago when we started supporting his campaign for the presidency. He has seen PMB’s style of nursing malice for no one and having charity for all, including his enemies. It won him over. He saw PMB’s achievements, his transparency.

“Our final message to Nigerians is this, ‘Seek not to crucify FFK, rather salute his courage to see the truth and to embrace that truth’.
