the Eleven points press release issued and signed by one Prof. Maishanu on behalf of the MSF .Sokoto, on Tuesday 12th January 2021, which is “asking Most Rev Dr Matthew Hassan Kukah, the Catholic Bishop of the Sokoto Diocese to leave the seat of the Caliphate defiled all human dignity.

“The ultimatum came to the Middle Belt Forum as a rude shock and defiled all human dignity.

“The Forum was not totally surprise at this new development because just 2 days ago, the DSS issued a red alert to the general public warning about the pending plans by some elements and groups of religious bodies working with external forces to incite religious violence across the country targeted some States and individuals.

“Part of the plans is to cause inter religious conflict as well as use their foot soldiers to attack some worship centers, religious leaders, personalities, key and vulnerable points.

“Now, it is clear to us that JNI and MSF has kick started the impending violence by trying to incite the peace loving people of Sokoto and our Muslims brothers all over the country against Bishop Matthew Hassan Kukah over his historical, beautiful, worldwide applauded Christmas 2020 message.

“The demeaning call by the so called professor for Bishop Matthew Hassan Kukah to apologize to the Muslim ummah or quickly and quietly leave the seat of caliphate “Is not just a ridiculous and unacceptable to us but demonic, uncalled for, and totally an affront to the right of Nigerians to live and resides freely in all parts of the country as a bonafide Citizens.
