Sultan: Everything Not Okay In Nigeria by Bilaludeen(m): 10:37am On Sep 08, 2018
The Sultan of Sokoto, Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, yesterday urged religious leaders to unite and preach against violence before, during and after the 2019 elections, just as he said Nigerians should stop deceiving themselves over the country’s problems.
He also advised politicians to stop fighting because of defections.
“Politics is a choice, like religion. Therefore, let’s not fight each other because of defection,” he said when he received the Catholic Bishops of Nigeria in his palace in Sokoto yesterday.
“We must tell ourselves the truth and speak the truth. Everything is not okay in Nigeria. Let’s stop hiding under religion, ethnicity or region. I know we have problems in Nigeria. Let’s not deceive ourselves.”
“There is no fight between Christianity and Islam, but maybe disagreement between Muslims and Christians. But we must try and fish out extremists in our midst. Though, you cannot completely fish out bad eggs from the society, we should continue doing our part to ensure a peaceful country,” he said.
The sultan added: “We have our problems and challenges. But we should collectively try and overcome them. As leaders, we must try and work for peace. There is no problem in this world that defies solution unless we are not honest. If not, we will overcome the problems.”
“We must also educate our followers that despite the challenges, we belong to one God Almighty but choose to worship God in different ways.”
On 2019 general election, he implored politicians to stop using children of the poor to spread violence.
He also spoke against killing of innocent people in the name of religion.
“People have wrong notions of Jihad. You cannot kill people pretending you are fighting for God. You are simply deceiving yourself. Jihad does not entail that. God did not create you to fight for Him,” he said.
Earlier, the National President of Catholic Bishops of Nigeria, Archbishop Augustine Akubeze, lauded the sultan for his roles on interfaith peace and peaceful coexistence in the country.
The Catholic Archbishop of Abuja, Cardinal Onaiyekan, noted the need for peace among religious leaders and for them to work towards ensuring peaceful coexistence among the citizens. In his remarks, the Catholic Bishop of the Sokoto Diocese, Rev. Matthew Hassan Kukah, acknowledged the sultan’s cordiality to all, irrespective of religion and other leanings.

The Sultan should do the entire nation a favour by calling out those who said "dogs and baboons will soak in blood", to retract the statement and tender an unreserved apology to the entire nation for making such hate speech.

What of he who spent two years on radio insulting and threatening the people of other regions in Nigeria with all his strength , while his elders pat his head and took photos with him after President Jonathan’s election loss worsened his insults .How does that promote love and peace?

Shut up you this liar personified!!!

Buhari spoke in Hausa that day and his exact words were "kare jini, biri jini", which is a daily Hausa proverb which means "it’s going be a fight to the finish"

I speak and understand much of Hausa so I know. And if you don't believe me then go ahead and ask an Hausa man for its interpretation rather than believing anything you are told. That nonsense rumour began with Reuban Abatti who chose to mislead people like you with lies.

Abatti deliberately lied when he tried to interpret it.

Kare jini, biri jini has nothing to do with dogs or baboon or even blood.

Bloody liar

I just decided to do a simple 3 min research and it so happens that even the press have corrected that erroneous interpretation of kare jini biri jini long ago but the deliberately embittered souls who want to keep up with the propaganda chose to look the other way.

To show you how complex Hausa language is. I translated it to mean a fight to finish and here on premium times it was translated as A FIERCE BATTLE.

How did baboon, dog or blood get involved when none of the words there mean any of those things?

This is why I called you foolish. He spoke in Hausa just like your article declared and his words for anything hinting on struggle or battle were the words KARE JINI BINI JINI which simply meant a fight to finish or a fierce battle as premium times rightly translated it.

He meant a political struggle. A fierce battle for victory politically .

He was addressing a political rally and not a group of soldiers.

You are making my point for me in case you don't see it

He never mentioned dogs or baboons or blood but made an idiomatic expression aka an Hausa Proverb.

Will you shut up.

He was addressing a northern crowd who mostly prefer to be addressed in Hausa and you are asking me if Nigeria is an Hausa state.

Where did he make that statement to and to whom? It seems your brain is fried.

Those behind the alleged massacre have already been exposed by the assassinated Azazi who was the Security adviser to Jonathan and PDP and he declared that PDP is boko haram.

Your failed attempt to spin this has failed. It failed pre 2015 with evidence too so you cannot spin it any further.

Azazi exposed your PDP and 2 weeks later they assassinated him.

The real bloody party has always been PDP and all they represent
