Don't Ask Kukah To Leave Sokoto - Shehu Sani to Muslims

The former senate representative of Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani has warned  Muslims living in Sokoto against asking Bishop Mathew Kukah to leave the state.

Sani who took to his Twitter page to advise the Muslim group against evicting Kukah from the state suggested that they visit the Bishop and engage him in a debate.

Further advising the Sokoto Muslim community to be a tolerant host, Sani said that there was no need to threaten or expel the Catholic bishop.

"My Dear Muslim Forum Sokoto, go in peace and meet Kukah in his Parish,engage him in a debate and defeat or win him over with your superior argument; be a tolerant host, no need to threaten or ‘expel him’.Don’t set a precedent for “quit noticing the messenger” Thank you," Sani tweeted.

Recall that the Muslims in Sokoto had earlier on Wednesday demanded that the Catholic bishop apologise or leave the state.

Kukah is being haunted for his Christmas day speech where he claimed that Nigeria under President Muhammadu Buhari was journeying into darkness.

According to Kukah, if Buhari were a non-Northern Muslim President, he wouldn't have "gotten away" with his "nepotism".

My Dear Muslim Forum Sokoto,go in peace and meet Kukah in his Parish,engage him in a debate and defeat or win him over with your superior argument;be a tolerant host,no need to threaten or ‘expel him’.Don’t set a precedent for “Quit noticing the messenger”
Thank you.
