Ansar-ud-deen Society of Nigeria (ADS) has appealed to the Boko Haram insurgents to sheathe their swords and allow peace to reign in the country.
This was disclosed in a statement signed by its Publicity Secretary, Muibi Adebanjo in Ibadan on Saturday.
The group congratulated the Muslims for the successful completion of Ramadan and urged the Islamic faithful worldwide to embrace the righteous ways displayed during Ramadan, noting that the nation cannot develop nor grow in a situation of insecurity, and charged the insurgents to sheathe their swords and make its agitation known to the government through dialogue.
ADS commended President Muhammadu Buhari for his approach to duty, and appealed to Nigerians to be patient with him while commending Buhari for bailing out the states with unpaid workers’ salaries, and advised the states to pay the workers as soon as the money was released.
It also advocated diversification of the nation’s economy to check high dependence on oil, adding that the country needed to grow every sector “for strong and quality development”. It called on its members worldwide to be steadfast in prayers, while also co-existing peacefully within their various societies.
