HOW KADUNA GOVT IS DRAGGING NORTH BACK BY 100 YEARS – MURIC
A prominent Islamic human rights organisation, the Muslim
Rights Concern (MURIC), has accused the Kaduna state government led by Uba Sani of dragging back the northern region of Nigeria by a hundred years.
Specifically, the group criticised the Kaduna state government for allegedly ignoring “all the brilliant legal practitioners in the North” to pick a lawyer from the south-west region ‘to prosecute El-Rufai’.
MURIC’s statement partly reads: “We are deeply perturbed by the pre-occupation of the Kaduna state government and its state assembly with the profiling of the immediate past governor of the state, Nasir El-Rufai.
“Most disturbing is the manner the state government ignored all the brilliant minds in the legal profession in the whole North to pick a human rights lawyer from the South-West for the purpose of prosecuting El-Rufai.”
” This is a slap in the face of not only that of legal practitioners in the North but the entire Northern population. It also constitutes a colossal waste of resources as well as an insult and a disservice to the whole North.”
