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.
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.
