RCCG Opens Up On Allegedly Denying Muslims Access To Redemption Camp

RCCG has spoken on allegedly denying Muslims access to Redemption Camp.

EKO HOT BLOG reports that the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) has reacted to allegations that they banned Muslims from entering its camp located along the Lagos-Ibadan expressway.

This online media platform understands that Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), through its Director, Prof. Ishaq Akintola, alleged that Muslims were prevented from transacting business in their banks or checking their WAEC, JAMB, and other examination centres.

He, therefore, demanded the relocation of examination centres from the RCCG camp, saying MURIC was inundated with complaints from Nigerian Muslims who have been denied access to the Redemption Camp along the Lagos-Ibadan expressway.

MURIC said, “Among the complainants are Muslims who registered for the Joint Admissions Matriculation Board (JAMB), the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) as well as other examinations. Attempts by the candidates to enter the RCCG camp in order to check their examination centres are always rebuffed by RCCG security men who turn them back at the gates with clear messages that Muslims are persona non grata inside the camp.”

Reacting to the allegation during an interview with Daily Trust, the RCCG spokesperson, Pastor Olaitan Olubiyi, said the allegation was unfounded, adding that the camp remains open to all individuals with a legitimate business.
