MURIC hits back, accuses Lagos CAN of hypocrisy over Sanwo-Olu’s commissioner nominees-list

Islamic advocacy group, Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has responded to the Lagos State chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) which accused it of playing double standards in criticizing the list of nominees for commissioners by Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

The group hit back and accused CAN of hypocrisy over its stance on the controversy surrounding the number of Christians among the persons nominated.

The Lagos CAN had, at a press conference on Monday, tackled MURIC and other Muslim bodies for criticising the list, saying it was in bad faith, distasteful but also condescending, insisting that the Christian body will not accept any religious bullying.
