Imam Muhammed Zakariyyah |
Various tragedies occurring across the length and
breadth of Nigeria have been attributed to sins committed to by Nation’s
leaders.
Chief Imam of the Eastern Naval Command Headquarters,
Calabar, Imam Muhammed Zakariyyah made this statement during his weekly Friday
sermon.
He said Nigeria needs prayers to stop some of these
unforeseen circumstances.
Using the recent plane crash in Lagos and the
continuous attacks on innocent citizens by the Boko Haram terrorist sect in the
North-Eastern part of the country, the Imam said, “part of what is happening in
Nigeria today is as a result of sins committed at various levels by the leaders
as well as the followers.
“Unless we go back to Allah before all these tragedies
can stop.
“If the sinners are being punished, the innocent ones
will share part of it, and that is what is happening in Nigeria today.
“Some people have done what Allah forbids, and when
such things happen, the punishment that follows it will be shared by all and
sundry.” the cleric said.
He prayed to God to guide the Nation’s leaders right
with the fear of Allah and responsible followers.
