The Sultan of Sokoto, His Eminence Mohammad Sa’ad Abubakar lll, has labeled people clamouring for the disintegration of the country as ‘Satan incarnate’.
The respected traditional ruler and religious leader stated this while speaking during the inauguration of the ultra-modern Hajj Camp in Bauchi State on Monday.
Sultan Abubakar appealed to Nigerians to embrace peace and not let divisive agents among the elites use them as tools for destroying the nation and again warned that citizens should not allow promoters of disintegration who are bent on sowing the seed of discord to create animosity in the country.
The renowned monarch noted that many people are plotting to dismantle Nigeria, adding that the people have a duty to rise up to the occasion and challenge those few elites.
He, however, reminded promoters of division that a general election remains the only legitimate tool to change any government. He charged the people not to allow anyone to steal their votes as, according to him, the time has come for everyone to re-organise, strategise and have excellent leadership in Nigeria.
Meanwhile, the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba, has said that the Force will deal firmly with any person or group who may want to cause trouble during the June 12 celebration.
