A prominent leader of the Tijaniyya Islamic sect, Sheikh Abubakar Sadiq, has called on Nigerians to unite in prayer for President Bola Tinubu, as the country grapples with skyrocketing prices and widespread economic hardship.
Speaking on Yesterday, Sheikh Sadiq expressed deep concern over the current state of affairs, stating that citizens are feeling discouraged and overwhelmed by the sharp increase in the cost of living.
“What is happening in Nigeria now is very painful. The price of everything has gone up, and people are feeling the weight. It doesn’t matter if you are male or female, young or old; everyone is discouraged,” Sheikh Sadiq said.
He emphasized the need for collective prayer, asking for divine intervention to guide the President and give him the wisdom to navigate the challenging times.
The Islamic leader highlighted the importance of patience and unity, urging Nigerians to pray not only for Tinubu’s success in governing the country but also for the strength to endure the difficult period.
“We must be sincere with ourselves and pray for God to assist us in finding a way out of this crisis.
“We pray that Allah grants the President wisdom to handle the situation effectively,” he added.
