(فَلَا تَضْرِبُوا لِلَّهِ الْأَمْثَالَ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَعْلَمُ وَأَنْتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ) [سورة النحل 74]
"So do not assert similarities to Allah. Indeed, Allah knows and you do not know". Q16:74

( ...اللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ حَيْثُ يَجْعَلُ رِسَالَتَهُ...) [سورة اﻷنعام 124]
"...Allah is most knowing of where He places His message (power)..." Q6:124

(...وَعَسَىٰ أَنْ تَكْرَهُوا شَيْئًا وَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ ۖ وَعَسَىٰ أَنْ تُحِبُّوا شَيْئًا وَهُوَ شَرٌّ لَكُمْ ۗ وَاللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ وَأَنْتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ) [سورة البقرة 216]

"...But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah Knows, while you know not". Q2:216

(قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ مَالِكَ الْمُلْكِ تُؤْتِي الْمُلْكَ مَنْ تَشَاءُ وَتَنْزِعُ الْمُلْكَ مِمَّنْ تَشَاءُ وَتُعِزُّ مَنْ تَشَاءُ وَتُذِلُّ مَنْ تَشَاءُ ۖ بِيَدِكَ الْخَيْرُ ۖ إِنَّكَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ) [سورة آل عمران 26]

Say, "O Allah, Owner of Sovereignty, You give sovereignty to whom You will and You take sovereignty away from whom You will. You honor whom You will and You humble whom You will. In Your hand is [all] good. Indeed, You are over all things competent. Q3:26

ﺍَﻟﻠَّﻬُﻢَّ اغْفِرْلَنَا وﻻَ ﺗُﻮَلِّ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻨَﺎ في نَيْجَيرِيَا ﺑِﺬُﻧُﻮﺑِﻨَﺎ ﻣَﻦْ ﻻَ ﻳَﺨَﺎﻓُﻚَ ﻓِﻴﻨَﺎ ﻭَﻻَ ﻳَﺮْﺣَﻤُﻨَﺎ.

ﺍَﻟﻠَّﻬُﻢَّ ﻭَﻝِّ أُﻣُﻮﺭَﻧَﺎ ﺧِﻴَﺎﺭَﻧَﺎ ﻭَﻻَ ﺗُﻮَﻝِّ أُﻣُﻮﺭَﻧَﺎ ﺷِﺮَﺍﺭَﻧَﺎ. وَاهْدِنَا ﺍَﻟﻠَّﻬُﻢَّ وَاهْدِ الَّذِي وَلَّيْتَ عَلَيْنَا. ﺁﻣـــــــــــﻴﻦ

Oh Allah! forgive us and do not give authority in Nigeria with our sins (to a leader) over us who doesn't fear you and doesn't have mercy upon us.

Oh Allah! select for us (as a leader) the best among us and do not select for us the worst among us. Guide us o Allah and guide the one you select for us as a leader. Amin
