The lawmaker in his message to Muslims all over the country and world over advised Muslims to observe the Ramadan fasting with the fear of Allah as it is a way of using the opportunity if the period to supplicate to Allah on how to solve Nigeria’s problems.

“I want to advise Muslims all over the country to pray frequently to Allah about the incessant attacks by terrorists , it is by praying to Allah that we can have a lasting solution to the country’s numerous problems”.

“If the Federal Government can urgently relocate the people of Rijana, Katari, Kasaramati and Jere communities where many lives were lost as a result of the recent bandits attack , the better for the country because we can not fold out arms and see so many lives been lost untimely in the hands of bandits”

“Our party has focus and I want to tell you that the recent misunderstandings among members of our party have been resolved and if there is anyone yet unresolved I want to assure you that we are all one big family and when we get to the river we shall know how to cross it,” he said.
