A popular Islamic preacher based in Sokoto State, Bello
Yabo, has prayed that terrorists who threatened to kidnap President Muhammadu
Buhari, Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State and the Senior Special
Assistant to President Buhari on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, should be
successful in their mission.
Yabo, who said the prayer while reacting to Shehu’s comment
on the terrorists’ threat, however, appealed to the kidnappers to release the
innocent victims in their custody.
He insisted the terrorists are free to kidnap Nigerian top
leaders.
Recall terrorists who abducted
passengers of a Kaduna-bound train on March 28, 2022, in a viral video,
threatened to kidnap President Buhari, El-Rufai and some lawmakers if they did
not comply with their demands.
But Shehu while reacting to the threat had said that the
“terrorist activity using propaganda and the use of violence to force
governments to accept or submit to political demands is not new all over
world.”
In response to Shehu’s statement, the Islamic cleric berated
him (Shehu) for simply describing the threat as prograpanda. The cleric accused
Shehu of being insensitive to the unfortunate plight of kidnapped victims.
According to a report by Daily Nigerian, Yabo prayed for
Shehu to fall into the hands of the kidnappers, “I pray they kidnap you, Garba
Shehu, and demonstrate as propaganda.”
“We are praying for you kidnappers. May God grant you
success in carrying out your threats to kidnap those people. But please release
the innocent people in captivity.
“If these were the kind of people you have been abducting
all this while, we wouldn’t have bothered ourselves. We would instead pray and
bless you because they have become a disaster [to us].
“These are people who promised heaven and earth, and now
they have the opportunity but became incompetent. Take them to the bush and
flog them, instead of humiliating innocent citizens who are striving to make
ends meet.
“And please make good your threats, and we will support you
with prayers.”
