Islamic human rights organization, the Muslim Rights Concern, (MURIC), has condemned the killings in Plateau State, just as it slammed the Plateau State governor, Caleb Muftwang, for seeking to trivialize the attack on Muslim travellers by his kinsmen.
Recall that last Friday, a bus carrying twenty-eight (28) Muslim passengers, mostly Hausa, was ambushed by suspected youths from Mangun village, Mangu local government area, eight were brutally murdered, six sustained various degrees of injuries, one very critical while four others are still missing.
In a statement issued yesterday, the group described the attack as most horrendous, totally egregious and categorically preposterous. It also referred to the governor’s statement after the attack as an unapologetic ‘apology’.
The statement was signed by the Executive Director of the faith-based non-governmental organization, Professor Ishaq Akintola.
