It may not be known in official circles, but Lagos Muslims are grumbling and we have been under pressure for some time now to speak up,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The statement said it rejected exclusivism in matters of governance, adding that \u201cLagos Muslims are tax payers and key stakeholders in issues affecting the welfare of Lagos citizens. We must, therefore, be consulted on matters of governance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe refuse to be blindfolded on the way to the polling booth. Neither shall we be satisfied just as voters, we must also be voted for. That is the essence of democracy. It must be participatory. The choice of candidates and leadership must not be lopsided in a democracy. Every segment of society must be consulted,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), on Monday, opposed the endorsement of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu for a second term.
