The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has faulted growing criticisms against Yoruba Muslim monarchs who choose to live and be buried according to Islamic rites, describing such attacks as an infringement on their constitutional rights.
In a statement on Monday, the Executive Director of MURIC, Prof. Ishaq Akintola, said it was wrong and discriminatory for anyone to condemn Muslim traditional rulers for preferring Islamic practices in their private lives, including worship, death, and burial ceremonies.
