MURIC CONDEMNS ATTACK ON EFCC BOSS: … Seeks tight security network for Magu

Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has condemned the recent attack on the residence of the Acting Chairman of Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC.

The property located at Karshi, an Abuja suburb was attacked by unknown gunmen around 10pm, a police sergeant on duty was reportedly killed.

The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) expressed shock at the wanton waste of life and the desperation to assassinate the EFCC boss.

MURIC in a statement signed by Prof Ishaq Akintola said the recent attack being the third attempt on the life of the EFCC boss this year alone,
The group said there was no iota of doubt at this time that a powerful corrupt person or persons whose case or cases are being investigated are determined to eliminate the no-nonsense anti-graft fighter.

“The handwriting is on the wall and the Federal Government must give marching orders to the nation’s security agencies to leave no stone unturned in the mission to protect Magu. Some powerful people just want him out of the way by hook or by crook. They want anyone else except Magu as head of the EFCC.

This man should not just be sacrificed like that. He is not fighting a personal battle. He is on a mission to rescue Nigeria from the abyss of moral debauchery. He is fighting for both the present and future generations. Corruption must not be allowed to win the battle. Nigerians will lose hope in this war if the arrow head is eliminated. We believe it is high time FG read the riot act to the security agencies. Heads must roll if anything happens to Magu.” MURIC stated.

MURIC further demanded for a round-the-clock impregnable security network around the person of Magu, his house as well as members of his nuclear family.

MURIC said “no more, no less. No option should be underestimated, including his consumables and the possibility of the use of explosives anywhere around his vicinity. This is not asking for too much because any successor of Magu will have been intimidated if the latter is eventually eliminated. The implication of this for the war against graft is better imagined.”
