 Don’t Protest Against Govt, Clerics Urge Youth

A prominent Islamic cleric, Sheikh Muhammad Kabir Haruna Gombe, has appealed to the youth to prioritise peace and avoid participating in the planned protest over hunger and insecurity.


Sheikh Gombe emphasised the significance of dialogue and peaceful conflict resolution, urging young people to refrain from actions that could incite violence or chaos.


“Some individuals are using social media to mobilise Nigerians, especially the youth, for protests against hunger, fuel subsidy removal, electricity tariff hikes and insecurity,” Sheikh Kabiru Gombe said.


Highlighting religious teachings, Sheikh Gombe underscored the qur’anic and biblical principles advocating for peaceful responses to challenges.


“The Holy Qur’an and the Holy Bible both emphasise peace over chaos,” he stated, urging adherence to these principles in times of adversity.


Also, Sheikh Sani Yahaya-Jingir, the National Chairman, Council of Ulama of the Jama’atu Izalatil Bid’ah Wa’Ikamatis Sunnah (JIBWIS), has cautioned Nigerians against engaging in public protests, emphasising that Islam prohibits actions that lead to chaos and calamity.


During a media interview in Jos, Plateau State, Sheikh Jingir said, “Allah detests chaos and calamity, and protests can lead to both. Therefore, I urge Nigerians, especially our youths, to reject any agitation for protests. Islam is above democracy, and it has forbidden protests; Allah has cautioned against any agitation for calamity.”


He advised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to address the plight of Nigerians by reinstating fuel subsidy to alleviate the hardship quickly.
