Emir of Katsina, Alhaji Abdulmumini Usman, has called on people from the northern part of the country support President Muhammadu Buhari’s government instead of joining those criticising it.
The monarch made the call on Saturday at the launch of a book titled “Limamin Kano Muhammadu Zaharaddeen Dynasty” written by Mallam Aminu Abdullahi, a former General Manager of the Katsina State Radio.
The Secretary to the Katsina State government, Alhaji Mustapha Inuwa, and the Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, have family ties with the dynasty.
The Katsina monarch said, “During this trying period, we as Northerners are expected to support President Buhari and his team and not to criticize them. What has been damaged for 16 years will take time to rectify. President Buhari is trying his best to rectify the situation and we must support and encourage him.”
Also at the event were Governor Aminu Masari, the Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, and the Emir of Daura, Alhaji Umar Umar, among other dignitaries.
According to the Katsina emir what should be paramount in the mind of every Nigerian now is moving the nation forward and not engaging in gossiping and rumour mongering.
Usman implored the people to purify their minds and resolve to be good always for the overall development of the society, citing appropriate portions of the Quran to buttress his points.
The Emir of Kano, in his brief remarks at the occasion, highlighted the importance of both Islamic and Western education, calling for the embrace of the two types of education for the development of the society.
Masari also spoke about the importance of education, maintaining that appropriate education would help reduce many ills of the society. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
