The Executive Director of the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), Prof. Ishaq Akintola, urges security agencies to increase protection for President and Vice President-elect, Bola Tinubu and Kashim Shettima as their lives are in danger. In a statement made on Friday in Lagos, Prof. Ishaq made the request due to alleged escalating security risks and remarks from the opposition camp, which were deemed as desperate and treasonous.

"Tinubu, Shettima’s lives in danger" — MURIC raises alarm

According to the MURIC Director, the lives of the president-elect and his vice must be protected at all cost. “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. “We remind those plotting to truncate the presidential inauguration, billed for May 29 of the dire consequences of their actions,” he stated.

2023: "Bishops at Kashim Shettima's unveiling should be arrested"

The Senior Pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Center, Dr Paul Enenche has called for the immediate arrest of ‘bishops’ who attended the unveiling of Kashim Shettima.
Shettima was on Wednesday unveiled as the running mate to the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, at an event in Abuja.

The presence of some bishops and pastors at the event had raised claims of them being fakes, especially as the Christian Association of Nigeria also disowned the clerics.
In a video on his Facebook page on Friday, Enenche bashed the clerics and those who brought them to the event as he calls for their arrest.
In his words: “You know there is a contest going on in this country right now where some criminals paraded themselves as bishops.
“That is the level to which the criminal leadership of this country has descended into. You see like begets like, those who sent them are like them. That is an impersonation of the highest order and they should be arrested and tried.”
This is coming after Tinubu’s Campaign Organisation (TCO) had refuted claims that the bishops and pastors who attended the event were fake.
TCO said: “We want to say that those clergymen were not fake, not mechanics or yam sellers as the purveyors of hatred have made Nigerians to believe in the social media. They are not big names in Christendom yet, they are gradually building up their missions.”
