Nigeria is possibly heading
towards full Islamisation that appears to be having the boost needed under the
Buhari’s administration. This is because despite all the gruesome killings being
perpetuated by the so called Fulani herdsmen who are under the leadership of
President Buhari as their patron, massive killings in Southern Kaduna, with the
president beingso reluctant to react proactively against such, but only when
the media and Christian leaders lambasts the government that most times some
sort of media condemnation is heard from the Presidency with little or no concrete
actions to back up such verbal condemnations.
Muslim students have their
mosques being operated freely without any hiccups in the South, but report
reaching us has it that the authorities of the Umar Musa Yar'Adua University,
Katsina, Katsina State, have banned whatever other religious or tribal
relationship on grounds other than the Muslim Students Society of Nigeria. Yet
these people keep saying we are ‘one Nigeria’ not minding the fact that Nigeria
is a circular state where anybody is free to practice is religion no matter
where we find ourselves
The university’s pro tem Dean of
Student Affairs, Dr. Sulaiman Kankara, passed on the new mandate to every one
of understudies' clubs and affiliations that were working on grounds by means
of an inward update dated January 17, 2017.
A duplicate of the reminder,
acquired by one of the Punch Newspaper, was inscribed, "Re: Registration
of Students Clubs/Associations."
Sulaiman said the new order was a
piece of the resolutions of the establishment's administration at its 59th
meeting, that was held on January 10, 2017.
The reminder read partially, “The
Muslim Students Society of Nigeria is the only religious association allowed to
operate in the university.
“All tribal and local government
associations are prohibited by the university.
“Duly registered departmental
associations should be allowed to operate, but they should observe item (I)
above.”
In any case, sources inside the institution
told The PUNCH that the new order is probably not going to evoke any response
from the students when the organization continues new scholarly academic
session on January 30, 2017.
"The college has never
shrouded its stance to be an Islamic establishment, in spite of the way that it
is an open organization," one of the sources said.
“The university has never hidden
its posture to be an Islamic institution, despite the fact that it is a public
institution,”
