Use your diversity to make Nigeria better country - Sultan - Daily Post Nigeria

The Sultan of Sokoto, His Eminence, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar has appealed to Nigerians to use their diversity and make Nigeria a better country.

Abubakar, who doubles as the President General, Nigeria Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs while acknowledging the fact that there are many ethnic groups, tribes, languages and faiths in Nigeria, urged fellow citizens to make use of the differences among them as a source of inspiration and development and not source of chaos and problems for the country.

“But, we should use our diversity to make Nigeria a better country. We should use this to make Nigeria a better country. We should not criminalise any ethnic group. When you say a particular ethnic group is terrorist. That should be criminalised. The problem in Nigeria is our educational status. Many people are not educated and education brings development”.

He said, “The rationale for the annual competition programme is that we envisage a situation where the culture of educational competition which has been downplayed in the Nigerian public education sector, can be re-enacted among the Muslim students. Such exposure will develop the potentials of the students involved in the competitions.
