The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has advised President Bola Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima to carefully consider the complexities of Nigerian society before making any decisions.
MURIC extended their congratulations to Tinubu and Shettima on their successful inauguration. The Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Olukayode Ariwoola, administered the oath of office to Tinubu and Shettima at Eagles Square in Abuja on Monday.
In a statement released on Tuesday in Lagos, Prof. Ishaq Akintola, the Executive Director of MURIC, urged Tinubu and Shettima to be mindful of the demanding responsibilities that lie ahead of them.
“We rejoice with the new president and his vice and share with them their moments of glory.
“Even in the euphoria of victory, we charge the duo to be conscious of the onerous tasks ahead of them.
“Nigeria is a complex society, therefore, there is the need to reflect deeply and examine all angles before taking decisions,” he said.
Akintola advised them to make good governance and improved life their primary goals.
“MURIC charges all Imams to initiate weekly prayers for President Tinubu and his vice as well as our country Nigeria, immediately after every Friday Jum’ah sermon.
“Finally, we appeal to Nigerians to allow the new administration to settle down and to cooperate with it in its endeavour to improve the standards of living in the country,” he said.
