Stop Crying Wolf, No Turkish Terrorists In Nigeria – MURIC

The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has told President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey to leave Turkish groups in Nigeria alone and stop crying wolf where there is none.

Apparently reacting to a warning issued by the government of Turkey asking the Nigerian government to be wary of Gulenist terrorists in the country, the Islamic group insisted that the Turkish groups in Nigeria were educationists and charity groups who were joining hands with Nigerians for the country’s growth and development.

MURIC’s founder and executive director, Professor Ishaq Akintola, said in a statement on Monday, ‘We take this warning with a pinch of salt. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is crying wolf where there is none. He is afraid of his own shadow.

“The government of Turkey has warned the Nigerian government to be wary of Gulenist terrorists in the country.).

“Nigeria is not a satellite of Turkey. Therefore, he cannot manipulate Nigeria to satisfy a narrow, diabolical objective. The whole world knows that he has virtually forced all opposition elements out of his country with his repressive and tyrannical tendencies.

“It is gratifying to note that even the Nigerian government has rejected his sinister advances and wrongful insinuations.

“As a democratic nation, we will not be complicit in the suppression of the opposition in other countries.

“We advise the Turkish leader to leave the followers of the late Shaykh Gulen in Nigeria alone and to stop crying wolf where there is none. Erdogan should take his cock and bull stories to the Marines. Nigeria cannot be fooled.”
