Muslim Group Warns Skit Makers Against Making Insensitive Content
The Ta’awunu Human Rights Initiative has cautioned skit makers against playing pranks on innocent citizens, passers-by, aged and ailing people.
In a statement signed and released to the our correspondent on Friday by the Director General THURIST-Nigeria, Sulaymon Tadese, the group also cautioned skit makers against deriding Islamic ethics and values.
The statement reads; “The rate at which morality and dignity of humans is being dragged in the mud in the name of skit making is alarming and needs to be properly and promptly addressed to forestall any unwarranted consequences that may arise therefrom.
“Skit makers have now made anyone a cast in shooting skit to gain netizens’ attention at the expense of the inconvenience of innocent citizens, passers-by, unsuspecting job seekers, aged and ailing people anywhere and at any time.
“It is important to state that the recent threat to the life of a veiled woman in a recent viral video is one of the many threats and dangers skit makers expose innocent citizens to in the name of Skit making.”
