It appears The Nigerian Sharia is not happy with the decision it made some months back.
The saying, “the rich also cry” is the situation of Nigeria at the moment.
Almost everyone is feeling the heat of the harsh economic condition of the nation.
The Supreme Council for Sharia in Nigeria (SCSN) has said that the APC Muslim-Muslim ticket it supported during the 2023 presidential election has fallen short of expectations and has not brought any positive changes to the lives of Nigerians.
The President of SCSN, Sheikh AbdurRasheed Hadiyyatullah, said this in an interview with journalists during a National Conference which held in Abuja.
Muslim-Muslim Ticket
The Islamic cleric said despite the enormous support received by the President during the election, Nigerians have not enjoyed dividends of democracy since he came to power.
“The Nigeria of today is too bad. What we are buying at ₦200 before is ₦2000 now.
We have scarcity of Naira and unemployment is escalating.
Nigerians are not enjoying the new government at all.
I don’t want to go personal but the Sharia Council helped the Muslim-Muslim ticket to be successful. We campaigned and supported this government until it came to power, but we are suffering.
“Looting In Broad Daylight”
Some of the Ministers are siphoning and looting the treasury.
I don’t want to mention any name but we have all seen and read it.
Nigerians have been suffering since the last seven months when this government came to power.
We are not making any progress.
The reason for the Muslim-Muslim ticket was to progress, triumph, succeed and to have a good government but we didn’t have anything.”
Speaking further, he said; “See how Nigerians are suffering. No money. No
progress.
We have not enjoyed anything since seven months of this government.
We are sympathetic with this government but the way forward is for some of these Ministers to go home and rest and we will find other people who will be honest with themselves and the country, those who are there to work not to loot the country
