Hardship: Planned protest can destroy Nigeria – Cleric cautions youths

The Chairman, Jama’atu Izalatil Bid’ah Wa’kamatus Sunnah (JIBWIS), Katsina State, Sheikh Yakubu Musa, on Friday, called on the youths to shun the planned nationwide protest against economic hardship for peaceful coexistence in the country.

Musa believes the protest could end up destroying the nation.

The cleric made the appeal while addressing the Muslim faithful shortly after prayer at Al-Sanawiyya Mosque, Katsina.

“Like here in Katsina, we are also disturbed by insecurity.

“We should shun the planned protest. We should not be part of it, our youths should also shun from being part of it.

“Because it could destroy the nation, we have seen what happened in some countries where as a result of protest, the countries had been thrown into war and total destruction,” Musa warned.
