Our main reason for the appeal is the need for peace in the country at this point in time when we are approaching the end of the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMURIC strongly condemns the killings which occurred in Abia last week. Indeed, we condemn all killings and all criminal acts, whether perpetrated by herders, ethnic militia or separatists. Life is sacred and no homo sapien has the right to unlawfully take the life of another.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe charge Northerners to remain patient and law-abiding. This attack in Abia in particular was intended to provoke the North into counter-killings which may spiral into another orgy of violence culminating in a civil war. The North should not even bite the bait, talk less of swallowing it. The cost is too high.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Akintola commended northerners for exercising patience.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe North has held back its anger each time its people are killed, harassed and intimidated by Southerners. Our records show that this has occurred several times particularly in the last seven years without the North attempting to retaliate once. We salute both the Northern youths and elders and urge them to hold on and continue the display of maturity and reticence,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe mourn all those who lost their lives as a result of killings around the country and we pray that Allah will give their families the fortitude to bear the losses. We also pray for enduring peace, political stability as well as economic prosperity in our dear country, Nigeria.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has begged the northerners not to avenge the kiing of some northern traders in Abia state.
