community will continue to follow the case until the culprits are brought to book.
Alhaji Sanni disclosed that the league of Imams and Alfas led by the Chief Imam of Ibadanland has concluded plans to set up a disciplinary committee where any Islamic cleric suspected to be engaging in unlawful activities would be reported for investigations.
“Report them, if anyone is spending money recklessly, report them. Anyone that we want to put forward as leaders, we must check their background. We will follow the case up. We say we will follow the case up. We will follow it to the logical conclusion.We should be watchful of the Mallams teaching our children the knowledge of Islam”, he said
Alhaji Sanni added, ” The league of Imams and Alfas led by the Chief Imam of Ibadan land, Alhaji Abdulganiy Abubakri Agbotomokekere is setting up a disciplinary committee where Mallams suspected of engaging in kufr practices alien to the Islamic culture would be reported for investigation and punishment that may lead to being ostracized from the league.”
He then urged Muslims in Oyo state not to take laws into their hands, saying, ” while we call for caution and appeal to Muslims not to take the laws into their hands, we want the public to know of our preparedness to follow the prosecution of these men of evil to its logical conclusion”.
