THE National Council of Muslim Youth Organisations (NACOMYO) has identified an inordinate quest for the acquisition of material things as the major cause of the myriads of economic and security challenges bedevilling Nigeria.
The group, therefore, implored the citizens to emulate Prophet Ibrahim, the father of faith, and be hopeful of overcoming “our present travails.”
NACOMYO, in an Eid-al-Adha message to Muslims, signed by Malam Sani Suleiman Maigoro and Alhaji Mas’ud Akintola, the national president and national secretary-general, urged the faithful to find their ways back to God and embrace righteousness.
The organisation decried the hypocrisy of many who claim to be believers but who continuously engage in crimes like banditry, kidnapping, terrorism and economic sabotage.
According to NACOMYO, to be truly rightly guided, one must follow in the footsteps of Prophet Ibrahim.
