The Executive Director of the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), Prof. Ishaq Akintola, has issued a statement urging security agencies to increase protection for the President-elect and Vice President-elect, Bola Tinubu and Kashim Shettima. The reason for this request is allegedly due to escalating security risks and remarks from the opposition camp, which have been deemed as desperate and treasonous.
In his statement made on Friday in Lagos, Prof. Ishaq expressed concern for the lives of the President-elect and his Vice, stating that they must be protected at all cost. He went on to say, “We find it necessary to alert the nation, particularly the security agencies, concerning ominous signs on the Nigerian political horizon. We call on the security agencies to double guards for the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, and his Vice, Kashim Shettima. Nothing must happen to them."
The MURIC Director also issued a warning to those who may be plotting to truncate the presidential inauguration, which is scheduled for May 29th. He reminded them of the dire consequences of their actions.
