The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has spoken out against Vice President Yemi Osinbajo’s alleged presidential ambitions.<\/p>\n

According to reports, Osinbajo would declare his ambition to run for President following the All Progressives Congress, APC, National Convention.<\/p>\n

The Vice President, however, rejected such reports through his Media Aide, Laolu Akande.<\/p>\n

In response, MURIC notified Osinbajo<\/a> that it was the turn of Muslims in the South West, not Christians, to lead Nigeria.<\/p>\n

MURIC\u2019s Director, Ishaq Akintola, explained that three Yoruba Christians have occupied the presidency, but no single Yoruba Muslim has been either military Head of State, President or Vice President.<\/p>\n

In a statement he signed and forwarded to newsmen, Akintola noted that this factor has given Yoruba Christians both political and economic edges and subjected Yoruba Muslims to political marginalisation, social segregation and gross economic disadvantage leading to abject penury among Muslims in the sub-region.<\/p>\n

The statement reads: \u201cThe Nigerian Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, has denied planning to declare his presidential ambition. The Vice President spoke through his spokesman, Laolu Akande today, Monday, 7th February, 2022.<\/p>\n

\u201cNonetheless (the denial notwithstanding), we will like the Vice President to know that it is not his turn yet. Neither is it the turn of any other Christian from the South West. This is because three Yoruba Christians (Obasanjo, Shonekan and Osinbajo himself) have occupied the presidency whereas no single Yoruba Muslim has been either military head of state, president or vice president of Nigeria.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis factor has given Yoruba Christians both political and economic edges and subjected Yoruba Muslims to political marginalisation, social segregation and gross economic disadvantage leading to abject penury among Muslims in the sub-region.<\/p>\n

\u201cMuslims in the South West will no longer remain onlookers in matters affecting our welfare and our collective destiny. Any Yoruba Christian or Muslim candidate seeking office will have to consult the Muslim community. Nobody will be allowed to take Muslims for a ride and get elected on a platter of gold.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll other things being equal, we would not have worried at all and we would not have brought the religious factor to the fore in Nigeria\u2019s march towards 2023. But the brazen effrontery and undisguised persecution of Yoruba Muslims coupled with the criminal silence from those that matter among Christian leaders, civil society and Yoruba socio-cultural groups have made our stand necessary. Our stand is informed by an urgent need to liberate Yoruba Muslims from the shackles of religious persecution.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe last time we checked, the Vice President has not deemed it necessary to check the excesses of his fellow Yoruba Christians who are oppressing Yoruba Muslim women in government offices and persecuting female Muslim students in South West schools. Neither has he uttered a single word of condemnation or sympathy on the matter. What then will be the fate of Yoruba Muslims when Osinbajo becomes the president of Nigeria. Christians in the South West will garner more courage. They will out-herod Herod and for Muslims, it will be from the frying pan into the fire.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven Profesor Oluyemi Oluleke Osinbajo cannot claim that he is unaware of the sufferings of Muslim women and female Muslim students in the South West whose conditions can be compared to that of blacks in apartheid South Africa. Perhaps his silence can be due to his position as a pastor of the Redeemed Church whose declared objective is to plant churches within a few meters of each other throughout Nigeria. The starting point may be the forced conversion of Muslim students in Yorubaland. This of course will not be a new development in the sub-region. It happened to our parents and grandparents.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe urge the Vice President to come out openly and put an end to the state of confusion. For the avoidance of doubts, we have nothing personal against Vice President Osinbajo. In actual fact, we are among his secret admirers and this can be traced to his loyalty to the President Muhammadu Buhari particularly because of the way he stood by the latter in his trying times.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would have been a horse of another colour if no Yoruba Muslim has shown any interest in the presidency come 2023. But fortunately the cr\u00e8me de la cr\u00e8me among Yoruba Muslim politicians have indicated interest. Vice President Osinbajo is, therefore, advised to allow sleeping dogs to lie.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
