The need for harmonious relationship between Christian and Muslim in the Country has been described as the factor that would determine the success or otherwise of the present government.
The Emir of Saminaka, Alhaji Musa Muhammad Sani in Lere Local Government Area of Kaduna State made this observation during an interview in his palace on the continuous peaceful coexistence enjoyed by various ethnic groups in his domain .
He said the secret for the peaceful and harmonious coexistence in his domain was partly due to his personal sacrifices toward the maintenance of law and order among the various tribes in the area.
“What we did to ensure peace and order in the land is by getting ourselves involved in all issues of peace between one Community and another”.
According to him, what is currently happening in “the local governments of Southern Kaduna State is largely owing to lack of protectiveness on the parts of the traditional ruler in the area.”
The traditional ruler however called on his counterparts in the troubled zone to wake up to their responsibilities for meaningful coexistence among their people.
Muhammed therefore employed the people in the Southern part of Kaduna state to leave in harmony between Christian and Muslim for meaninful development among people.
According him, the various ethnic-groups in the area should learn from the way and manner they are leaving together.
