Sheik Babatunde made this call while delivering a lecture titled Islam and Politics at the 2017 Ramadan/Iftar Programme organised by Tiwa n Tiwa Losun, a socio-political group on Sunday in Osogbo.

The scholar said ” if Nigeria must return to its days of prosperity, every citizen involved in politics and politicking must do so with fear of Allah SWT”.

He also stated that the current situation of the country is the handiwork of not only the politicians but also the entire citizenry because politics in Nigeria is full of deceits and atrocities which only reflects what is in practice in every sector of the national life.

In his own lecture titled Jihad/Terrorism : the position of Islam, Imam Imran Daud Molaasan, Ameer Ja’amatu Ta’awwunil Islam, said Islam abhors terrorism.

Molaasan condemned terrorist activities and noted that Islam symbolizes and preaches peace and peaceful co-existence.
