I think its bad technique to execute dynamic SQL from your C# application. Below is my method:

Model:

  public class ApplicationRole : IdentityRole
  {
    public ApplicationRole() : base() { }
    public ApplicationRole(string name) : base(name) { }
    public string Description { get; set; }

  }

Controller:

using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity;
using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.Owin;
using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework;
using System.Linq;
using System.Net;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Mvc;
using System.Collections.Generic;

//Example for Details.
if (id == null)
  {
    return new HttpStatusCodeResult(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest);
  }
  var role = await RoleManager.FindByIdAsync(id);
  // Get the list of Users in this Role
  var users = new List();

  // Get the list of Users in this Role
  foreach (var user in UserManager.Users.ToList())
  {
    if (await UserManager.IsInRoleAsync(user.Id, role.Name))
    {
      users.Add(user);
    }
  }

  ViewBag.Users = users;
  ViewBag.UserCount = users.Count();
  return View(role);

View (using ApplicationRole)

    

        
Roles.
        

        

            

                @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.Name)
            
            

                @Html.DisplayFor(model => model.Name)
            
        
        

            

                @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.Description)
            
            

                @Html.DisplayFor(model => model.Description)
            
        
    
    
List of users in this role
    @if (ViewBag.UserCount == 0)
{
        

        
No users found in this role.
}
    
        @foreach (var item in ViewBag.Users)
    {
            
    }
    

                

                    @item.UserName
