The Muslim Rights Concern -MURIC, has appealed to the National Assembly to provide the National Council for Arts and Culture -NCAC, with the required authority to go after the reality television show, Big Brother Naija to ban nudity often flouted o the reality show, in support of calls by Chief Segun Runsewe.
Segun Runsewe is currently the Director-General of the National Council for Arts and Culture.
A press statement released on Sunday in Abuja by the Director of MURIC, Prof. Ishaq Akintola had read:
“MURIC has been consistent in its condemnation of the BB Naija Show. We can recall two separate statements issued about the reality TV show. On July 12, 2019, we made a statement titled ‘Ban BB Naija,” Akintola said.
“We call on the NASS to listen to Runsewe. It is the voice of reason. BB Naija is dragging our youths to a world of nudity, debauchery, and shamelessness. The show is a potent threat to every home. It is an open rape of our cultures, values, and norms.”
“The NASS will have its name forever carved in letters of gold if it listens to the plea made by Runsewe. His appeal has shown the weakness in our legal system. It has also disclosed that there are no extant laws strong enough to stop romance and sex on our television channels. The time to give the law the teeth to bite is now.” The statement finished.
