Ahead of the today’s governorship election, the Chief Imam of Ife Land, Shaykh Abdus-Sami Abdul-Hamid Muhamadur-Raji II has urged the Muslims in the Osun State to to vote for competent candidate and not because of religion or any political party.
He made this known in an interview with our newsmen at the weekend.
Describing the introduction of lexicons such as Christian-Christian or Muslim-Muslim into the Nigeria political landscape as hypocritical and a misplaced priority, he said the religion of a party’s flagbearer should ordinarily not matter.
He called on electorate to vote for the candidates who can successfully steer the Osun ship in the right direction in the forthcoming governorship elections.
He said the state needs competent leader who can salvage electorates from trying moments irrespective of religious or political parties’.
“We should not be widening out fault lines by placing undue emphasis on the religious persuasion of individuals standing for elections. All these are not solving our problems.”
The Islamic scholar however, urged the Muslims to utilize the blessings of the Dhul Hijjah and pray for the peace and unity in the state and Nigeria at large.
