I am deeply concerned by the comments made by Sheikh Sani Yahaya Jingir at an event in Kano this weekend.
At this critical moment in our nation’s history, statements that promote division and disunity must be firmly discouraged. It is particularly troubling to hear such rhetoric from a religious leader of Sheikh Jingir’s stature and influence.
Let it be clearly stated: the good people of Kano do not endorse or support these divisive remarks.
Political and religious leaders alike carry a solemn responsibility to uphold truth, foster unity, and advance reconciliation. We must not lend our voices to utterances capable of undermining the very foundation of our nationhood.
The 2027 general elections will be an opportunity for Nigerians to reward good governance with resounding support and to reject poor performance at the polls. This administration has earned the latter.
God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria. - RMK
