He called on Muslims to unite especially those in leadership positions to fight the scourge of ignorance, unemployment, poverty, disease, hunger, mis-governance, corruption, tribalism, among other vices in the society. "We’re not terrorists", he claimed.

"This is also to show the world that we are Muslims, we are not terrorists, we are not arsonists. We have a duty to call on Allah, Islam is a religion of peace, and praying to Allah for peace is our contribution towards attaining peace and tranquility in Nigeria.” Dr. Abdul Lateef explained.

“We are on the verge of another election and acrimony is already manifesting, issues here and there. It is only Allah that can intervene on behalf of the downtrodden and marginalised.” He said.

The lecture was thereafter put to close after the bursary award presentations, goodwill messages and vote of thanks from Alhaji Afolabi Mukaila.
