Governor Adeleke Should not have left praying ground If He Was There To worship Allah- MURIC

The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has warned politicians in Osun State, Southwest geopolitical zone of Nigeria against desecrating the Muslim prayer grounds.

The warning was made by the Executive Director of MURIC, Prof. Ishaq Akintola in a statement on Thursday.

Recall that there was a clash between the chieftains of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and All Progressives Congress (APC) over sitting arrangements at Eid prayer ground in Osun State on Wednesday.

MURIC Director said; “Therefore, there is nothing wrong if both the governor and the senator are on the front row. In fact, there is nothing like entitlement to front row seats in Islam. The president, the governors, senators, etc. may be given the front rows just for security reasons. Neither does Islam entertain imperial mentality inside the mosque or on Muslim prayer ground.”

He added; “Governor Adeleke should not have left the prayer ground if he was there to worship Allah, no matter what happened. Adeleke should tell us loud and clear where he belongs. All politicians should drop their political garbs in their party secretariat”
