The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has said the Bukola
Saraki-led Senate, agitators and bad losers caused the insecurity under the
Muhammadu Buhari-administration.
The Islamic organisation made the submission on Thursday in
a press release by its director, Professor Ishaq Akintola.
Akintola accused certain elements of manipulating
information in order to incite Nigerians against the federal government.
“Bad losers among the politicians are hell bent on ensuring
that the present administration fails. There are also anarchists whose main
objective is to sabotage security facilities,” he claimed.
MURIC recalled that the Saraki-led Senate on 6th April, 2018
rejected the President’s request for $1billion for the purchase of arms.
The decision, according to Akintola, was a “deliberate
attempt” to frustrate the government’s resolve to secure the nation.
“Nigerians would have witnessed a drastic improvement in the
security situation had that request been granted.
“But the unpatriotic elements in the Senate ensured that the
request was blocked. The same politicians turned round to blame Buhari for the
worsening security situation,” he added.
The statement stressed that government’s efforts were
sabotaged during the End SARS protests in October 2020.
It said the release of prisoners, the burning of police
stations and the looting of police armoury were meant to cause havoc.
On the assault on Imo State Police command headquarters,
Akintola declared it was to ensure security challenges persist.
The organisation said the attack on Owerri prison where
1,844 prisoners were released confirmed “the diabolical objectives of the
anarchists”.
The MURIC director urged citizens to expose enemies of
peace, adding that nobody should think that another leader has the magic wand.
