As Mansur Tijani commends Tinubu’s economic policies
An Islamic Scholar, Sheikh Mahbub Adekilekun has called on politicians to remember their roots and be beneficial to communities beyond the political and electioneering periods.
Sheikh Adekilekun made the call on Saturday at the 2nd Annual Ramadan Lecture Series of Mansur Oladimeji Tijani Foundation held in Ede, Osun State.
The cleric described remembrance of one’s parents as an injunction by Almighty Allah, stating that whoever does that will always get Allah’s favour.
“What Mansur Tijani is doing today is what Allah commanded us to be doing. We must remember our parents and also ensure people benefit from us. I want to call on politicians, people must benefit from you beyond elections period or campaign time. Be beneficial to people at all times.”
While speaking, Founder of MOTIF, Mr Mansur Tijani described the event as a way of immortalizing his late grandparents, stating that they lived for the development of Islam and humanity in Ede.
“We started this last year and the is to continue remembering our late grandparents, most especially our late grandfather, Sheikh Tijani. We also use it to give back to the society which is one of the acts we inherited from our father. This is the second anniversary, we started it last and we hope to continue.”
Tijani also commended the policies of President Bola Tinubu, describing them as necessary and yielding.
“President Tinubu has continued to show that he means well for Nigerians. Those bold steps of removing subsidy and floating of naira are already yielding positive results for Nigerians. Everyone can see that the economy is not stable now and things are coming down gradually.
“The economic policies have been being applauded by local and international experts. I believe President Tinubu has all it takes to take Nigeria to greater places. Let’s just keep supporting him.”
While speaking, popular scholar, Musbaudeen Orimadegun called on youths not to be instrument of destruction and violence in the hands of any politician.
