Residents of Kusfa in Zaria,
Kaduna state, organised a prayer
session to ask for Allah's
intervention regarding the
insecurity in the country.

The residents slaughtered two
rams during the prayer. They
asked Allah for help to win the war
against kidnapping and banditry.
Photos show that the prayer
session was well attended by
residents.

The prayer is coming a few days
after the Emir of Zazzau, Ahmad
Bamalli cried out that Zaria
Emirate was under the siege of
bandits.

While hosting a delegation of the
heads of security agencies serving
in Kaduna at his palace on
Monday, June 14, the monarch
said Zaria city and its
surroundings are experiencing
incessant attacks and abductions.
