Against continuous killings and kidnapping in Sokoto, Balarabe Shehu Kakale Shuni who is a member of the House of Representatives from the state has organised and sponsored a special prayer.
The special prayer conducted under the leadership of the chief scholar of the state, Sarkin Malaman Sokoto Sheikh Muhammad Yahaya Boyi, was aimed at seeking divine intervention to end the wanton killings and adductions of the innocent.
The prayers will also focus on instilling the fear of God in the hearts of the political, religious, traditional and community leaders so that they can distribute state resources equitably.
The prayer was part of a series of activities organised for the festive period.
Speaking shortly after the conduct of the special prayer session, Shehu Kakale said the people and government of the state spend lots of resources in the fight against insecurity but efforts continue to prove abortive.
So, they decided to seek divine intervention with the hope of bringing an end to the disturbing situation.
He said he was encouraged in this regard by the enormous efforts made by the Sultan of Sokoto, Muhammad Saad Abubakar, and other leaders of thought in trying to find lasting solutions to the security crisis.
