The Organisation of Muslim Unity (Nig) has called on President Bola Tinubu and Federal Government to find a lasting solution to the high cost of living being experienced by the masses as a result of hyper-inflation caused by the removal of fuel subsidy and unstable foreign exchange value.
This is contained in a communiqué
signed Engr. Waheed Shittu, President and Alhaji Ma’ruf Elegbede, Secretary General that was issued at the end of the 82nd National Executive Council (NEC) meeting of the Organisation of Muslim Unity (Nig) held 5th – 7th July, 2024 at the National Secretariat, Idimu, Lagos State.
Organisation of Muslim Unity (Nig) said
the Constitution of Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended) Guarantee Freedom of Religion devoid of any hatred or victimization from anybody.
That, “It is on this, we condemn in totality the unwarranted attack on our Muslim brother and his family by a pastor of CAC Agbala Imole at Iseyin using Army Personnel to intimidate, harass and assault them on the day of Eid-El-Adha.”
We call for full justice on the matter and thorough investigation and appropriate punishment on the Army Personnel involved.
The organisation commend the timely intervention and settlement of the imbroglio between the Royal Majesty, the Soun of Ogbomoso and Dr Toliat Ayilara – the Chief Imam of Ogbomoso and advise those behind the rift to allow better religious understanding and tolerance for lasting peace and harmony to reign in the town.
On the recent bombings in Borno State, it calls for more vigilance by our security agencies at their respective duty posts and also advise them not to relent on the commendable efforts at bringing down insecurity to the present manageable situation.
We charged the Federal Government to reconsider the recent increase in the electricity tariff as it harkened to the burden of the citizens.
The incessant down tools by the various workers unions on wages and non implementation of agreements with government has continued to slow down productivity, thereby affecting the economy of the nation. We therefore, implore the government to always honour signed agreements with the unions for peace to reign in the nation.
