We don’t have non-indigenes in Sokoto – Sultan

We don’t have non-indigenes in Sokoto – Sultan

The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammadu Sa’ad Abubakar, has called on state governors across Nigeria to treat all residents as indigenes, regardless of their state of origin.

Speaking during his Sallah homage to Governor Ahmed Aliyu at the Banquet Hall, Presidential Lodges, Sokoto, the Sultan emphasized that in Sokoto, all Nigerians are considered part of the resident community, fostering inclusivity and unity.

“In Sokoto, we don’t have non-indigenes, but rather members of the resident communities,”;; he stated, urging other states to adopt this approach to promote peace, harmony, and national integration.

The Sultan also stressed the importance of security, describing it as the foundation of any progressive society. He commended Governor Aliyu and security agencies for their efforts in combating banditry and improving safety in Sokoto State.

In response, Governor Aliyu reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to ensuring the security and well-being of the state’s residents. He attributed rising insecurity in parts of the country to unemployment, particularly among the youth.

“This administration has trained and graduated thousands of youths and women in different trades to make them productive members of society. We will soon embark on another massive skill acquisition program to engage more unemployed youths and reduce restiveness,”;; the governor said.

He also reiterated his government’s commitment to Islamic affairs, assuring that mosques and Islamiyya schools would continue to receive support from the state.

Governor Aliyu expressed gratitude to the people of Sokoto for their prayers and unwavering support for his administration.
