He made this appeal during an event held at the University of Ilorin, where he spoke about the importance of fostering a positive attitude toward leadership.

The discussions at the event reflect a broader sentiment among many Nigerians who seek to navigate the challenges posed by leadership and governance.
In a time when political discourse often leans toward negativity and frustration, the Sultan’s call for prayer and support offers a refreshing perspective.
It encourages citizens to take a more proactive role in shaping the leadership landscape, fostering a spirit of cooperation and understanding.
