Something worse than Boko Haram may come up, Sultan warns
Sultan of Sokoto Saad Abubakar has warned that the north may witness a bigger trouble that would be worse than the Boko Haram terrorism.
He mentioned the level of orphans in the region was alarming, saying it could snowball into something that “would turn out to be worse than the Boko Haram”.
The Sultan condemned the establishment of an outfit in the region code-named “Operation Shege-Ka-Fasa”, warning elites not to allow youths take over their roles.
The Coalition of Northern Groups (CNGs) revealed the outfit last Wednesday, declaring it would fight crimes in the region.
The outfit was launched one month after South West Governors created Amotekun, a regional security organisation.
Speaking at a security meeting in Kaduna, Abubakar said northern elite are the challenges of the region, as they have failed to provide them with good leadership.
He advised the northern elders to caution the youth, saying if the elders fail to take the lead, the youth would do whatever they like and feel is right.
“I saw it on the television, and the media gave them attention. Now, the elders allowed these youths to go forward. So, the elites are our problems, the elders are our problems.
“If the elders don’t take the lead, the youth will do whatever they like and think they are right. You have to caution these youths by giving them good leadership, “he said.
He added: “Now, they have launched their own security outfit I don’t know what they call it, Shege Ka Fasa’, meaning what?
“So, I want to call on northern elders to caution them. Don’t allow these youths to take over leadership from you.
“You have to reach out to everybody no matter how low the person is.
“So, I think we need to take the bull by the horns and not allow the youths take over responsibility. I think we need to do that and much more.”
