The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has called on Alhaji Atiku Abubakar of the People’s Democratic Party to congratulate President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The Supreme Court of Nigeria had on Thursday affirmed the victory of President Tinubu in the presidential election held on 25th February, 2023.
MURIC, via a statement signed its director Professor Ishaq Akintola, however, implored Atiku to display Islamic brotherhood and political maturity by congratulating the winner.

According to MURIC, “politics is over. The legal fireworks have come to an end with the final pronouncement of the Supreme Court. But we have a country to build and the time to do it is now.
“Both of you are Muslims and that is important to MURIC. First and foremost, you were both Muslims before becoming politicians. You must now join hands to heal wounds, to build bridges and to allay fears.”
Referring the two political gladiators to the Glorious Qur’an, the group continued, “Allah wants Muslims to cooperate for the good of humanity, the advancement of homo sapiens and the fear of Allah. He warned us against coming together to commit sin and to transgress (Qur’an 5:2).”
