The Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, has said Zamfara State which started the implementation of Sharia law in Nigeria currently has the highest poverty rate in the country.

Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, the Emir of Kano Speaking at the Mo Ibrahim Forum in Marrakesh, Morocco, weekend, Sanusi said many of those who seized religion as tool of getting power were not necessarily better than the rest of the people.

According to him, such people should, however, be given a chance to participate in a democracy, so that they don’t go on pushing a myth that they were not given a chance.

“Give them four years, after sometime people find out that they have not improved education, they have not put food on the table, they’ve not provided healthcare, they vote them out.

So long as you don’t give them a chance to try and succeed or fail, you have a myth of people being denied an alternative that would make their lives better. I think the mistake that many people make is that they simply don’t have the patience to wait four years.

We have had it in Nigeria; people came and said they were implementing Sharia. Zamfara State started Sharia in Nigeria; it has the highest rate of poverty in the country today.

It’s a matter of time for people to realise that this is all deception, this is all politics, this is not religion; it is about politicians appropriating religion as a discourse for getting into power.” Zamfara state implemented Sharia in 1999.

Story from the gods!

HRM SLS should take it easy on some of his opinons lately oooh.

Sorry my dear sanusi. I know the present situation in the north is giving you sleepless night. Just continue pushing may be one day other like minded elites from your region will find their voices. Trust me a united Nigeria must start from a truly enlightened and soundly educated north. For the greatest asset of a nation is it's human resources.

Sharia for the poor and the vulnerable.
