KADUNA: Shariah council back govt on demolition of building for ‘sex party’

THE Supreme Council for Shariah in Nigeria has commended the Kaduna State Government for demolishing the hotel where the maiden edition of Kaduna sex party was to take place in the state.

The council also praised the government for its quick intervention in arresting the organisers of what it described as satanic sex party.

The council’s reaction was contained in a statement issued on Friday by the Council’s Kaduna State chapter Chairman, AbdulaRahman Hassan.

The statement attributed the prevailing bloodletting through kidnappings, banditry, armed robbery and a host of other vices in Nigeria, particularly the Northern part, to what it described as “immoral acts like the satanic sex party”

The statement read, “Allah (SWT) stated categorically in Suratul Hajj verse 41, thus: “Those who, when We empower them in the land, observe prayer, and give regular charity, and command what is right, and forbid what is wrong. To Allah belongs the outcome of events,” they said.

“In line with this verse, the Council as an advocate of moral and social values commends the steps taken by the Kaduna State Government on the arrest of the organizers of the Satanic so called “Kaduna Sex Party” and the demolition of Asher Hotel at Barnawa, Kaduna.

“No doubt this kind of illicit act is one of the ingredients that is fueling the wrath of Allah (SWT) that we are inflicted with currently.

“The current merciless bloodletting through banditry, kidnappings, armed robbery, and host of other vices, are as a result of our derailment from ideal moral and cultural values.

“While we commend the Kaduna State Government for this commendable act, we also call on the government to scan for such places where illicit acts are perpetrated in the state, such as ‘Ajagunle’ area, off Maiduguri Road, in Kaduna North Local Government, where ‘Nude’ clubs do exist.

“May Allah strengthen our leaders to do right, may He protect our Imaan.”
