Council Of Imams Back Buhari’s Anti- Corruption Drive

The Council of Imams and Ulama in
Kaduna State on Sunday said the
effort by the President Muhammadu
Buhari-led administration in
recovering stolen wealth from past
corrupt officials was commendable.
The resolution was passed in Kaduna
after the council’s annual
conference.
The Chairman of the Council, Baban
Tuni, and the Secretary-General,
Yusuf Arrigasyyu, presented the
resolution.
According to the resolution, the
effort of the Federal Government to
recover all ill-acquired wealth looted
from the nation’s treasury was
laudable.
Mr. Tuni said: “Therefore, it is
compulsory to retrieve the people’s
right from corrupt and selfish
persons.
“The Council is urging the
government to do justice to the
culprits according to the provisions
of the law.
“The Council also feels delighted and
appreciative of the Federal
Government under President
Muhammadu Buhari in its effort to
wipe out insurgency and other
terrorists acts from Nigeria.
“The Council equally observes that
some progress and successes have
been recorded at various levels
within few months of this
administration.’’
Mr. Tuni said further that the council
was impressed about the recall of
officers and men of the Nigerian
Army who were dismissed on
grounds of insubordination, treason
and various other charges.
The Council, however, reminded Mr.
Buhari and all other political leaders
to fulfil their campaign promises to
the electorate.
“We call on all Nigerians to remain
steadfast and continuously pray for
the sustenance of our country and
we pray that Allah help our leaders
to be just and truthful.”
