Sultan of Sokoto and the President General of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA), Alhaji Muhammadu Sa’ad Abubakar has advised Nigerian leaders to stop blaming each other for the country’s woes.
The Sultan urged the leaders to desist from what he described as the “blame game and face the reality” on the bad state of the nation’s economy.
Abubakar explained that unless political leaders abandon their political affiliations and come together to fix the economy, Nigerians will continue to groan.
The Sultan said this when he paid a courtesy visit on Governor Adams Oshiomhole.
About the forthcoming Edo state governorship election, he stressed that the people must be allowed to vote the candidates of their choice because “when you have something on ground, the people will compare the work and that of the other parties and make their choice”.
The Sultan informed the governor that he was in the state for the annual meeting of the NSCIA, adding that all hands must be on deck to achieve the Nigeria of our dreams.
