The Emir of Misau, His Royal Highness, Alhaji Ahmed Suleiman mni led thousands of other Muslim faithfuls on Saturday to offer special prayers for Allah to bless Misau local government area of Bauchi state with adequate rainfall.
Speaking shortly after the prayers, the Emir commended the turnout of the faithfuls to the prayer venue, praying Allah to accept their submissions.
On his part, the Chief Imam of Misau, Mallam Manu Mohammed advised the people of Misau to abstain from all forms of acts that are capable of jeopardizing their relationship with Allah, always forgive one another and live peacefully with their neighbours.
The chief Imam further called on people of Misau and Bauchi state as a whole to continue to pray until Allah in his infinite mercy provide the state with adequate rainfall.
According to him, Misau has in the past years experienced similar problem, but after praying once, Allah answers in good time.
“Allah has this time around tested us with this problem which we haven’t experienced for a very long time. Since I became the chief Imam seventeen years ago, we hardly pray more than once before we are blessed with rainfall”, he said.
The Chief Imam who prayed Allah to forgive the sins of mankind, noted that some of the evils been committed by people are the repercussions of the current problem.
“This is true, just like what Mallam said. If we can behave in an orderly manner, we won’t experience this kind of problem. Let us be careful and obey Allah”, he said.
