Clerics went deep into the Holy Book on Friday, soulfully reciting powerful verses as they prayed against insecurity in the state and country at large.
The Bichi Emirate Council in Kano State had organised a special prayer session to seek Allah’s intervention.
The Emir of Bichi, Alhaji Nasir Ado-Bayero, led the session at Bichi Central Mosque.
Imams, Qur’anic and Islamic school teachers from nine local governments in the emirate, under the leadership of Bichi Chief Imam, Khalifa Lawan Abubakar, attended the session.
The clerics recited the Holy Qur’an with the intention to seek Allah’s mercy for an end to the various security challenges facing the country.
Speaking after the prayers, Chairman, Bichi Local Government, Prof. Yusuf Muhammad, thanked the Emirate for organising the prayer.
Muhammad said that the prayers were timely considering the series of insecurity challenges facing the country.
He urged the people to organise similar prayers in their domains.
