Christian Genocide:Emir Sanusi Hosts Christian Leaders, Preaches Peace, Religious Unity
The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, says he is committed to promoting peace, security and inter-religious harmony in Kano State and Nigeria at large.
Sanusi expressed this commitment on Saturday when he received the Executive members and Elders of the Kano State Chapter of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, PFN, on a courtesy visit to his palace in Kano.
The monarch, who recalled his early exposure to Christian education, pointed out that he attended a Catholic school as a young man, noting that the experience helped shape his appreciation for religious coexistence.
Sanusi called on religious leaders to intensify prayers for sustained harmony, especially in light of recent security concerns affecting some border communities.
“We should encourage continued interfaith cooperation and the role of religious leaders to foster unity and stability at both state and national levels.
“I appreciate the PFN for the Peace Award you presented to me, and I assure you of my continued support and openness to engaging with Christian communities in the state,” he said.
Speaking earlier, the Kano State Chairman of the PFN, Rev. Elkanah Enweluzor, said the visit was to identify with the Emir’s leadership and his consistent efforts at sustaining peace in the state.
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has announced Morocco as winners of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
The CAF Appeal Board ruled in favour of Morocco, declaring that Senegal forfeited the AFCON final by walking off the field during the game.
Morocco were awarded a 3–0 walkover victory.
This decision upholds Morocco’s appeal following the chaotic events in the match.
DAILY POST recalls that the Senegal team briefly walked off the pitch in protest after a controversial penalty was awarded to Morocco late in regulation time.
They were called back to the field by their captain, Sadio Mané, and later won the game 1–0.
CAF determined that this action constituted a violation of Article 84, or the equivalent regulations concerning refusal to play or abandoning the field.
Under AFCON rules, a team that refuses to continue playing or leaves the field without authorization faces elimination and forfeiture of the match.
A total of three operatives of different security agencies in Anambra State collapsed during the inauguration of Anambra State Governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, on Tuesday.
The incident happened during the parade at the Dr Alex Ekwueme Square in Awka.
The three operatives are one male police operative, another male operative of the Directorate of State Services (DSS) and a female operative of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC.
The police operative collapsed first, followed by the NSCDC operative, who slumped towards the end of the event and was later escorted to an ambulance, after she refused to be moved in a stretcher.
A source said the police operative was later resuscitated, but was still not stable, and was taken in an ambulance to Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital, Amaku Awka.
The collapse of the service officers was attributed to fatigue and the long period of parade under harsh sunny weather.
