Coup: MURIC tells Nigerian Army to arrest those inciting military against Tinubu

The Muslim Rights Concern, MURIC, has asked the Nigerian Army to expose, arrest and prosecute those inciting the military to overthrow President Bola Tinubu.

MURIC stated this in response to the Army’s revelation that certain factions have been goading it to stage a coup, citing soldiers’ welfare and the recent coup in Niger as justification.

The Executive Director of MURIC, Prof. Ishaq Akintola, in a statement on Monday also commended the Army for standing firm against these insidious efforts.

He said: “We hereby commend the officers and men of the Nigerian Army for refusing to succumb to the instigation of coup zealots.

“We urge the military to expose, arrest, and prosecute those inciting it to topple the legitimate administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”

“Military rule will rob Nigerians of their freedom and dehumanize them,” Akintola warned.

He added that the Nigerian Army will not stomach criticism, nor is there integrity and accountability in a military regime.

Kemi Finali News recalls that Defence Headquarters, DHQ dissociated itself from any coup plot against Tinubu last week.
