Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State has engaged the services of 30 clerics to pray for the end of Boko Haram insurgency in his state. Zulum’s spokesman, Isa Gusau in a statement said that the governor engaged the 30 residents of Makkah, Saudia Arabia to intercede for the state affected by years of Boko Haram violence.
Gusau disclosed that the governor sealed the agreement with the selected persons who are residents of Makkah, to permanently offer daily ‘Dawaf’ (circumambulation of the holy Ka’aba) for the return of sustainable peace in Borno and the country.
He said that the 30 clerics, who hailed from Borno, Katsina, Zamfara, Kano States and other parts of the northwest, have for decades devoted themselves to spending hours at the Ka’aba daily for the purpose of worship.
