Islamic New Year: Sultan of Sokoto sends powerful message to Muslims, Nigerian military [ Full text]

The Sultan of Sokoto and President-General, Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs , Alhjlaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar has commended Nigerian military and other security agencies for their sacrifices in serving and preserving the country’s territorial integrity.

One significance of the New Hijrah Year is the opportunity it accords a Muslim to turn a new leaf, set his priorities right and evaluate himself as a way of preparing for the Judgement Day. As a matter of fact, Hijrah connotes migrating from what is evil and despicable to what is good and righteous. This should be the resolve of every Muslim as the New Year begins.

While we appreciate the military and the security agencies for the sacrifices they are making in serving and preserving our dear country, we use this medium to urge them to nip our security challenges in the bud by focusing more on intelligence gathering and engaging more in functional inter-agency synergy, instead of what appears as unhealthy inter-agency rivalry.
