Insecurity: Kano Emir, Etsu Nupe, Dahiru Bauchi lead Tijjaniyyas to pray for peace

By Omeiza Ajayi, ABUJA

Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero and the Etsu Nupe, Yahaya Abubakar as well as the leader of the Tijjaniyya Islamic Movement in Nigeria, Sheikh Dahiru Usman Bauchi have asked Nigerians to continue to support their leaders with prayers in order to help navigate the country out of the current challenges facing it.

The trio spoke at a prayer session organised Friday night at the National Mosque in Abuja.

The national prayer for peace and unity in Nigeria was led by the World leader of the Tijjaniyya Islamic Religious Movement, Sheikh Muhammadul Mahy Niass and the Grand Khalifa, Sheikh Dahiru Bauchi.

In a brief exhortation, Sheikh Bauchi advised religious leaders in the country to preach and pray for the peace of the country.

According to him, it is only when there is a peace that the country can progress and record meaningful development.

On his part, Emir Bayero asked Nigerians to be patient and think the way forward for the country.

He said; “I am extremely delighted to be here to put our heads together and pray for the peace, unity and harmony as well as progress of our nation. Indeed when thousands of people gather for a purpose and the purpose is for the unity, peace and stability of the country, that shows people really respect the tradition. People respect their authorities and people live in their country. So, I am not surprised that the crowd is huge.

“Secondly, I must thank President Muhammadu Buhari for giving us the honour of seeing him earlier on Friday and I must thank the leader of the Tijjaniyya sect as well as all other Ulamas and government officials who have supported this prayer.

“My message to Nigerians is that they should continue to pray for their leaders so that they will have the heart to look at what the common man is facing and help him out of any difficulty. Secondly, I will also ask that we be patient and put our heads together to succeed”.

The Etsu Nupe equally tasked Nigerians to continue to live in peace and harmony, saying violence is an ill-wind that blows no one no good.

The prayer session which had thousands of the movement’s members from across the country had guests from other African countries.

How to jump-start Nigeria economy post-COVID-19 Pandemic

Nwali Tochukwu Watching with consternation the fall out of events, actions, and inactions of our Nigerian leaders on mitigating the negative impact of COVID-19 Pandemic disruptions on our social and economic lives. As a young dynamic business and entrepreneurship writer, and author cum small business owner, what came into my mind as we navigate the storms of COVID-19, was a common English phrase Adages, Proverbs, first recorded in Fuller’s Gnomologia, 1732: ‘A stitch in time saves nine’ which was translated to literally, solve the problems right now! Why procrastinating? If we, as a nation wants to break away from past mistakes, and present mistakes, we should hold the bull by the horn right now. And avoid the roads of political expediency. That is exactly what the stitch in time simply stood for. Promptly address issues posed by Coronavirus. By quickly sewing up of a small hole or tear in a piece of material, so saving the need for more stitching at a later date when the whole ha...
