“Allah detest chaos, calamity and protest can lead to chaos and calamity in the country, therefore I am urging Nigerians, most particular our youth to reject any agitation for protest.

“Islam is above democracy, and it (Islam) has forbidden protest; and Allah has cautioned against any agitation for calamity,” Shiekh Jingir warned.

He cautioned that many countries have been dragged into crises as offshoots of protest, citing instances of: Kenya, Sudan,Yemen, Syria, Iraq and others.
