The leadership of the Jamaatu Nasril Islam under the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’adu Abubakar lll, has hailed the re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari at the February 23 presidential election in the country.

The Sultan of Sokoto is the spiritual leader of the Nigerian Muslims. He is also the President-General of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs.

In a statement signed on his behalf and the Nigerian Muslim community by the JNI’s Secretary-General, Dr Khalid Abubakar-Aliyu, on Sunday in Kaduna, the Sultan thanked God for a hitch-free election which led to the declaration of Buhari as winner.

He urged losers in the presidential poll, including Alhaji Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party, to accept defeat and embrace peace as according to him, in every contest, there must be a winner and a loser.

“We are grateful to Allah, the beneficent and exceedingly merciful for the peaceful and successful conduct of the 2019 Presidential and National Assembly elections, as well as the subsequent declaration of the winners.

“Jama’atu Nasril Islam under the leadership of His Eminence, Alhaji Muhammadu Sa’ad Abubakar, delightfully congratulates President Muhammadu Buhari and all other contestants, as well as the Nigerian electorate that conducted themselves peacefully and with high spirit of decorum during and after the elections.

“However, we call on all the political contenders in Nigeria to, in the name Allah, take it easy and sheathe their swords, as in every contest there will always be a winner and a loser.

“But in this case, all the contestants are the winners, because Nigerians are now beginning to understand the dynamics of politics and democracy.”

This is the same Sultan that some said has forsaken Buhari because of Dasulki and was backing Atiku for the Presidential election

Like for Sultan Of Sokoto, Share for Emir Of Kano

OK

Aitku should just move on, failure is not the end.
unfortunately, he may have lost his last opportunity

The international bodies Atiku said he will run to if there was any rigging are even d ones congratulating Buhari.

Atiku has gone to America and won 1 million on-line polls.

Of what use have all that been?

So atiku should accept election that was a total charade?

Nope
We are heading to court

As long as its between fulanis, this people are so unite, unlike we here down south.




Bitter truth.

"I will congratulate myself" said Oga Bubu.

We will not take this!

Hitch-free election...like really? May be hitch free has a new meaning just like Apple does.

sultan how can you advice him to accept what is not right in his sense. if the election was hitch free in sokoto but it isn't free in rivers state. out of the 24 LGAs in rivers state only 9 LGAs results was called.

Now a yam not understand in

So all those so Called powerful Generals Atiku was banking on couldn't help him out. Where is Obasanjo, Danjuma, Babangida, Abdulsalam and Co. Seems Tinubu has overthrown all of them.

leave Atiku alone. they should stop pressuring Atiku to congratulate Buhari. After all, Pmb never congratulated anyone in the past.

Everyone is urging Atiku both locally and internationally as if he was cheated for real.
No one is urging Fela Durotoye, Kingsley Moghalu, Sowore and co to accept defeat.
