Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Muslim Rights Concern, MURIC, has condemned the latest Plateau crisis which has claimed about eight lives.<\/p>\n

Prof. Ishaq Akintola, the Executive Director, MURIC, stated this in a statement in Abuja on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Governor Celeb Mutfwang had imposed a curfew after fresh killings were recorded in the area on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

However, crises have continued in Mangu town despite the 24-hour curfew imposed on the Mangu Local Government Area of the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe death toll in the raging crisis in Mangu, Plateau State, has reached eight. Six mosques and two churches have been burnt. The burnt mosques include a central mosque, the Anguwan Dawo Jumat Mosque. An Islamic school, Audi Islamiyyah, was also burnt. The two burnt churches, Deden and Assemblies of God\u2019s Church, are located in Sabon-Kasuwa in Dercom and Alogom areas of Mangu. Both belong to COCIN.<\/p>\n

\u201cMURIC denounces this wanton destruction of lives and properties, particularly houses of worship which should be respected. It is barbaric and satanic. We must learn to coexist peacefully.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019Reports gathered from the state branch of MURIC and that of the Jamaat Nasril Islam (JNI) states that the crisis started on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe charge the security agents to be fair to all. Partisanship in the security agencies can cause irreparable damage. It can also allow the crisis to escalate beyond imagination,\u2019\u2019 Akintola said.<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cWe appeal to the people of Mangu in particular and Plateau State in general to stop all forms of hostility. They should cooperate with law enforcement agencies. The name of Plateau State has become synonymous with killing and destruction.<\/p>\n

\u201dThis has started to scare prospective investors, tourists and visitors away from the state. This is bound to affect the state\u2019s economy.\u201d<\/p>\n
