PRESS RELEASE:
MURIC WITHDRAWS THE WORD ‘JUICY’, REPLACES IT WITH ‘TOP’, APOLOGISES
The Muslim Rights Concern has apologized for
using the word ‘juicy’ in a statement issued yesterday, Tuesday, 16th
May 2023.
In the statement, MURIC canvassed for a top
post to be given to Governor El-Rufai of Kaduna State. The human rights group
has since decided to withdraw the word ‘juicy’ which was used in the statement.
MURIC said:
“Our attention has been drawn to the word ‘juicy’
used in yesterday’s statement as not being decent enough. In the statement, we canvassed
for a top post to be given to Governor El-Rufai of Kaduna State in the incoming
administration. We inadvertently used the word ‘juicy post’ instead of ‘top
post’ It is not in our character to be insolent, loose or to use vulgar
language.
“We hereby withdraw the word ‘juicy’ and
replace it with the word ‘top’. We apologise to all those who might have taken
note of the offensive word.”
Professor Ishaq Akintola,
Executive Director,
Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC)
