K!lling People Are Not Muslims But Crim!nals – Sultan Of Sokoto
According to a report by The Nation Television on Monday, November 17, 2025, the Sultan of Sokoto and President-General of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, Alhaji Muhammed Sa’ad Abubakar, has urged security agencies to take firm action against crim!nals, regardless of their religion or ethnic background.
He emphasized that acts of violence should not be associated with any faith, describing those responsible for k!llings and abductions as criminals rather than true adherents of Islam.
The Sultan made the remarks during the 10th General Assembly of the Muslim Ummah of South West Nigeria (MUSWEN) held at the Bola Babalakin Auditorium in Gbongan, Osun State.
The gathering brought together religious leaders and community stakeholders from across the region to discuss pressing social and security challenges affecting Nigerians.

Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar condemned the ongoing att@cks by terror!sts and bandits in different parts of the country, noting that these acts have caused immense suffering to families and communities.
He urged security agencies to remain impartial and carry out their duties effectively, warning that selective enforcement could deepen divisions and undermine national unity.
The Sultan stressed that the safety of all Nigerians should be a priority for both government authorities and society at large.
In his address, the Sultan also appealed to Nigerians to maintain unity and avoid being manipulated by external influences that seek to create religious or ethnic tensions.
He emphasized that the nation’s strength lies in the cooperation of its citizens across different backgrounds and warned against allowing fear or mistrust to dominate public life.
His message highlighted the need for collective responsibility in addressing insecurity.
He said, “Those k!lling people are not Muslims but criminals and I want to urge the security operatives to apprehend and deal decisively with criminals irrespective of their religion or tribe.”
The Sultan concluded by reiterating his call for decisive action against perpetrators of crime.
He insisted that the law must take its course without bias, and that citizens should support security operatives in their efforts to protect lives and property.
