Emir Sanusi Warns Kano Youths Against Attacks on Non-Indigenes Over Edo Killings

Published

on

The 16th Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has cautioned youths in the state against launching attacks on non-indigenes following the killing of 16 Hausa travelers in Uromi, Edo State.

Speaking on Sunday after leading the Eid-el-Fitr prayers at the Kofar Mata Eid ground, the Emir urged restraint and called for justice through legal means rather than retaliation.

“We received reports on Saturday evening that some youths in certain areas were planning reprisal attacks on non-indigenous residents after the Eid prayers. We strongly advise against such actions,” Sanusi stated.

He emphasized the need to maintain peace and avoid lawlessness. “We appeal to them not to take the law into their own hands. It is crucial to prevent any breakdown of law and order. Traditional leaders across the state must remain vigilant,” he added.

The Emir also called on authorities to ensure that those responsible for the killings in Edo are brought to justice. “The relevant agencies must thoroughly investigate and prosecute the perpetrators of this barbaric act,” he urged.

Furthermore, he reminded Muslims to uphold the values of discipline and righteousness learned during Ramadan. “As we conclude the fasting period, we must sustain the lessons of Ramadan and refrain from returning to sinful acts,” he advised.

Sanusi’s message reinforces the importance of peaceful coexistence and lawful redress in the wake of the tragic incident.

Pastor Adeboye Bans Braids and Heavy Makeup for RCCG Clergy

Published

on

The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has openly criticized clergymen who wear braided hair and clergywomen who use false eyelashes and heavy makeup. During the church’s recent annual convention, he announced that these trends among church workers would no longer be accepted.

“In Yorubaland, the only men who braid their hair are Sango priests, the god of thunder,” Adeboye remarked. “Some say this is a new age, and we must adapt to modern trends, but not in this mission. Even after I’m gone, this will not be allowed.”

He made it clear that any pastor, particularly female pastors, who appears overly made up like a Nollywood star would be removed from the altar. “You may not like it, but if you are my children, you can’t defy me. Real men don’t wear makeup because they believe God made no mistakes in their creation.”

Adeboye further questioned the use of false nails, stating, “When you begin to fix false nails, I wonder what you are trying to achieve. If God wanted to make you a bird, He would have given you false nails and eyelashes.”

He urged those who take pleasure in unconventional appearances to repent and embrace modesty. “You can quote me on this: If anyone questions why you are making these changes, tell them, ‘Daddy GO said so,'” he concluded.
