The Zamfara State government has sent 97 Islamic clerics on Lesser Haji to Saudi Arabia to seek God’s intervention on the banditry in the state, IgbereTV reports
This came exactly two weeks after the government presented 260 Cadillac cars to all traditional rulers in Zamfara in recognition of their roles in the fight against banditry in the state.
The clerics, who left for Saudi Arabia Wednesday, are to “engage in prayer sessions in all strategic place of worship in Makkah and Madina for restoration of peace in Nigeria.
In his address before the clerics left the country, Governor Bello Matawalle urged them to put the state and its people first in their prayers
