“Ahead of 2023, it is our counsel, it is our advice to Nigerians that they should watch out, politicians will begin what they normally do, but let us keep in view that we shall elect those who remembered this nation in their hearts.
“We need to work together to rescue it. Not for ourselves but for the future of generations yet unborn.
“The substance of the presentation is that Muslims in Nigeria should know that our destiny is hinged on the destiny of Nigeria. We cannot but find ways to ensure that good governance that we all desire, we all work toward getting it. We cannot get it if we stand alone.
“We counsel that Muslims who are currently in political offices should rise up to their responsibilities, they should rise up and fulfil the promises they made to Nigerians before they were elected.
“They should stop benchmarking their prosperity with the adversities of the populace. Those of them who are in power, we are complaining about them, they should not forget that we are the one that elected them.
