The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) on Monday addressed Nigerians who have come out to condemn the viral video of teachers of an Arabic school in Kwara State seen flogging a female student, IgbereTV reports
According to Professor Ishaq Akintola, director of MURIC, the grouo doesn’t subscribe to severe torture but the students needed to be punished for going against the teachings they received from their teachers.
It would be recalled that the video of the teachers scolding the ‘wayward’ scholars in Kwara State went viral on social media last weekend. The students had several bruises across their bodies which infuriated Nigerians.
Despite criticism from Kwara State indigenes, the director of MURIC stated that the students needed to be punished so as to stop them from badly influencing other students and become better people in the community.
