The Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’ad Mohammad Abubakar II, has called on Nigerians to stop castigating their leaders, urging them to allow God to deal with them as He wishes.
He emphasized that nothing good or bad lasts forever and encouraged Nigerians to continue praying for both their leaders and the nation.
The Sultan made these remarks during the Regional Conference on Climate Change-Induced Conflicts in Northern Nigeria, hosted by the Kaduna State Bureau of Interfaith in collaboration with International Alert, on Monday.
He reminded leaders that on the Day of Resurrection, the Almighty would hold them accountable for their stewardship, with no one there to defend them in the presence of their Creator.
In his words,”Do your best in worshiping Allah (God) and leave the rest to Him, not to anybody.
