This judgment was expected, and those who initiated the case in court knew this all along.However, for the past eight months, their aim has been to promote selfish interests and instigate unrest in this part of the country.Despite their efforts, our greatest achievement is that the state has remained peaceful. There has been no violence or disorder. We call on everyone to continue maintaining peace and unity.This battle is not ours but Gods. And God does not need anyones help. Let us keep praying for His guidance and intervention. May God protect us, and whoever seeks to ignite chaos in Kano, may that fire consume them instead.To those who wish harm upon Kano or its peace, may they face the consequences of their own wishes.They may attempt to provoke violence, but let us not respond to their actions. Let us not engage them in any way. Whoever questions Gods judgment will ultimately face the consequences of doing so, Sanusi said.
