Jama’atu Nasril Islam (JNI) yesterday queried federal government’s inability to proactively take battle to terrorists’ enclaves and decisively deal with them.
According to the highest Islamic body in the country under the leadership of the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar III, the essence of government and governance is solely to protect the five principal cardinal rights of the human race.
In its reaction to the recent terrorists’ attack on a Kaduna-bound train, stated categorically, JNI said while the most important of such rights is life, any government that is incapable of protecting the lives of its citizens has lost the moral justification of being in place.
The Islamic body in a statement signed by its secretary-general, Dr Khalid Abubakar Aliyu, expressed worry that terrorists were becoming bolder and more belligerent by the day, as they operate in any area of their choice at any time they wish for hours non-stop without any fear of being confronted or apprehended.
