The Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, NSCIA, has advised Muslim clerics in the state to be cautious and not interfere with the ongoing emir crisis.
The NSCIA, through a statement by its Secretary-General, Salisu Shehu, said it noticed contradictory statements from the state’s Council of Ulamas.
The body stressed that the statements will only heighten tension instead of providing solutions to the problem.
DAILY POST recalls that the Kano State Council of Ulamas wrote a statement to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, urging him to employ non-partisan measures to address the emirship crisis.
However, another group issued another statement calling on Governor Abba Yusuf to obey the court order against the deposition of the emirs.
Addressing the clerics, NSCIA asked them to refrain from making statements that could cause tension and make the body disunited.
