The Emir of Ilorin, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari yesterday urged religious leaders in the country to preach peace to their congregation.

The Emir spoke at the Ilorin Eid praying ground during the celebration of the Eid-el-Kabir, saying religious leaders are duty bound to preach and propagate peace.

The state government in collaboration with security agencies in the state ensured adequate security measures in and around the Ilorin Eid praying ground, where Governor AbdulFatah Ahmed and his predecessor, Senator Bukola Saraki joined other worshipers to offer the two-rakah naflah.

He said the much desired growth and development would continue to be elusive unless the country is able to tackle headlong the security challenges facing it.

Sulu-Gambari enjoined his subjects to continue to live in peace and harmony with other members of the society while seeking God’s guidance for political office holders at all level.

In his sermon, the Chief Imam of Ilorin, Alhaji Mohammed Bashir Salihu admonished Muslims to imbibe the virtue of perseverance.

He said if Nigerians imbibe virtues of perseverance, patience and love, the nation would be a good place for all to live in.

Let's hope religious leaders will listen to the Emir of Ilorin. The relative peace that exists in Ilorin should also serve as a sample to religious leaders in other town and cities in Nigeria.
