The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar has expressed worry over what he called hateful development amongst politicians in Kaduna State and called for immediate stop to it. He called on such politicians to focus on promoting democracy in preparation for the 2019 general elections.
The Sultan, who spoke today, Tuesday, in an address to mark the Annual Pre-Ramadan lectures, organized by the Jama’atul Nasirul Islam (JNI) in Kaduna lamented the attitude portrayed by politicians in the State, describing it as worrisome and disturbing.
“The attitude of politicians is becoming worrisome and disturbing; especially what is happening in Kaduna should stop. Kaduna politicians should close their ranks and stop the hate speech because Kaduna is key to the survival of the region.”
