MURIC says Borno government has demolished 11 mosques but only four churches.

It said contrary to the claims, the team discovered that more mosques have so far been demolished than churches. “Contrary to a coordinated propaganda over the demolition of an EYN church in Maiduguri, the Muslim Rights Concern can authoritatively report that the Borno State Geographic Information Systems created by Governor Babagana Umara Zulum, actually demolished 11 mosques and four churches, in the metropolis,” the statement reads.
