NAN – The Sokoto State chapter National Council of Muslim Youth Organisation (NACOMYO) says it has commenced voluntary prayer and fasting for the success of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
Aliyu Kyautawa, president of the organisation, revealed this in an interview with NAN, saying they were doing so out of the love they have for the country.
“We are praying and fasting every two weeks for peace, tranquility and success of President Muhammadu Buhari who means well for the people of this country,” he said.
“We are not sponsored by anybody and we don’t belong to any political party and we are not doing it for any material gain.”
Kyautawa said members of the group were convinced that Buhari had the ability to liberate the Nigerian masses from the bondage of poverty, insecurity and bad governance.
He explained that the prayer and fasting was first conceived in 2014 when the country was facing a myriad of challenges.
“This is why we decided to embark on voluntary prayer and fasting every two weeks for peace in the country,” he said.
“We are also praying for the success of Gov. Aminu Tambuwal in Sokoto state.
“Buhari has the masses at heart, but his efforts are being frustrated by some unpatriotic Nigerians.
“They have been sabotaging his efforts in a bid to make this nation ungovernable for him, but all their efforts would be in vain.”
He said the organisation had been sponsoring media campaign to educate the public on the need to also change their attitude and support the government, both morally and spiritually.
Kyautawa said he was optimistic that the hardship being faced by Nigerians would soon be a thing of the past.
