The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), has lauded governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State for banning betting in the state.

This is contained in a statement on Saturday, by MURIC Director, Prof. Ishaq Akintola in Abuja.

“The governor of Anambra State, Dr Charles Soludo banned betting institutions like Bet9ja, NairaBet on Friday, Oct. 21.The ban also affected gambling inside casinos.

“We commend the governor for taking this step. It is bold, righteous and commendable.

“Soludo is exhibiting high level morality and undisguised discipline in governance. It will be recalled that he recently banned the wearing of mini-skirts by school girls in the state.

“He is demonstrating zero tolerance for lasciviousness and avaricious greed.

“The Muslim Rights Concern is showing interest in Soludo’s way of governance because his style conforms with the Muslim way of life. We will not be surprised if he does not drink and does not smoke. Soludo is promoting virtues, fighting vice and projecting righteousness.

“This man can clean up the mess in our society. He is a presidential material, ceteris paribus. Therefore, MURIC will not hesitate to support him at the right time.

“It is not about religion every time. It is about values, norms and orientation. Soludo is not a Muslim but a man who has morality and discipline deeply tucked in his curriculum vitae has already scored high marks in our assessment parameters,” Akintola said.

Daily News 24 had earlier reported that governor Soludo had issued a ban on 9jaBet, casinos and others in Anambra state.
