The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has called on concerned authorities to ban a Nollywood movie featuring armed actresses robbing a bank while wearing niqabs.

MURIC in a statement issued on Thursday by its Executive Director, MURIC, Professor Ishaq Akintola described the yet-to-be released movie as satanic, repugnant, and provocative.

According to the statement the movie is Islamophobia taken to the highest level and it may also expose Muslims in general to public ridicule and opprobrium.

The statement also added that the movie is the handiwork of Muslim-haters and part of the plot to stop Muslim women from wearing hijab and niqab.

The statement read in part, “An extremely anti-Muslim film has been released into the Nigerian movie industry. The upcoming film shows women in purdah brandishing dangerous weapons and robbing banks. It is Islamophobia taken to the highest level. This film is satanic, repugnant, and provocative.

“It is aimed at portraying Muslim women as criminals with a violent proclivity. The film is capable of inciting the public against Muslim women. It may also expose Muslims in general to public ridicule and opprobrium.

“We believe that the film is the handiwork of Muslim-haters and part of the plot to stop Muslim women from wearing hijab and niqab. The plot was hatched a long time ago, and its execution began in the schools.

“This plot was boldly and diligently confronted in Nigerian courts by Muslims until the highest court in the land made a pronouncement on it. This Satanic film is the latest effort in the war against hijab.”
