Imam urges Nigerians to reveal hideouts of bandits, terrorists to military

The Chief Imam of the Abuja National Mosque, Dr Muhammad Kabir Adam, Friday, appealed to all Nigerians to disclose the hideouts of bandits, terrorists, kidnappers and other criminals terrorising the country to the military.

This, the cleric said, would support troops of the armed forces and other security agencies fighting security challenges across the country to hasten their mandate in bringing an end to the current menace in the country.

Dr Adam stated this in an interview with defence correspondents shortly after a special Jumat service prayers organised in commemoration of the 2022 Armed Forces Remembrance Day.

According to him, it may be difficult for Nigerians to reveal the dens of the adversaries disturbing the peace of the country, but that it has become imperative considering everyday killings in the country.  

Dr Adam explained that the Friday prayers were set aside to remember Nigeria’s fallen heroes who sacrificed their lives in defence of the country’s territorial integrity and ensured peace returned to the land.
