ONE of the newly appointed imams of the National Mosque, Abuja, Sheikh Abdulkadir Salman Sholagberu, has admonished Nigerians to stop blaming President Bola Tinubu for the current high cost of goods and general hardship in the country.
Sholagberu, who made the plea in an interview with newsmen, said, “Rather than put blame on the President or his administration, Nigerians should retrace their steps and worship Almighty God in line with the teachings of the two holy books.”
Sholagberu said the present administration inherited the problem and called for patience, understanding and prayers for the government to turn the economy around and resolve other challenges confronting the nation.
“We need to go back to our Creator, repent from our sins, seek His forgiveness, and everything will come back to normal,” he said.
The cleric urged the President to recruit capable hands into his government who could help to translate the administration’s vision into reality.
Sholagberu prayed for success of President Tinubu and beseeched Allah to give him sound health to enable him to fulfill his promises to the citizenry.
The Imam also prayed for peace in the country and urged Nigerians to embrace unity.
