I Have Nothing against Islam, Says Wike
The Governor of Rivers State, Nyesome Ezenwa Wike has advised those who are chastising him for demolishing a non-existent “mosque” to verify any story before jumping to conclusions or issuing reprimands.
Wike said “I have nothing against Islam or any faith for that matter and as you can see there was never a mosque on this ground instead it is a sewage site, which has been in contention between the state government and “some groups because they want to develop on prohibited land.” The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar III In a statement issued in Kaduna, said that caution and restraint was necessary to allow the leadership of the Muslim Ummah “find a lasting solution with wisdom” on the said demolition of the mosque.
