NSCIA Sultan Asserts Organization's Apolitical Stance

During the NSCIA’s General Assembly in Abuja, the Sultan declared that the organization is not involved in politics, despite politicians, including campaign councils from the All Progressive Congress and the Nigeria Democratic Congress, reaching out to its members. He mentioned receiving delegations from various political parties, including President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's campaign council and Peter Obi's, while anticipating visits from Atiku and Amaechi.

The Sultan clarified that the assembly aimed to strengthen bonds among Muslims and that a prayer session held prior was not politically motivated but focused on national peace and security. He urged unity within the Muslim community on common issues and announced the intention to make the General Assembly an annual event.

The Sultan also praised Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, the Secretary-General of the NSCIA and former JAMB Registrar, for his leadership in restoring trust and transparency within the agency.
