The Sultan of Sokoto and President General of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA),Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar 111, has urged Nigerians not to castigate their leaders, but instead pray for them to succeed in delivering the mandate entrusted in them.
He made call on Saturday in Lafia in commemoration of the 5th anniversary of the emir of Lafia on throne as the 17th emir of Lafia.
