Shi’ate leader, Zakzaky, distrubutes rice to Christians

The National leader of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, IMN, which was proscribed by the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari has distributed rice the some selected Christians in Kaduna.

Sheikh Ibrahim El-Zakzaky, the leader of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, has said he distributed rice to the Christian widows to help them ameliorate their suffering due to economic hardship in the country.

The distribution was facilitated through the General Overseer of Christ Evangelical and Life Intervention Ministry in Kaduna State, Pastor Yohanna Buru.

Pastor Buru during the distribution, explained that El-Zakzaky has made it a tradition to extend food assistance to both Muslims and Christians during the Sallah festivities to promote peace, unity, and to strengthen interfaith relations in the country.

The cleric noted that this year’s distribution was significant due to the economic hardships and the high cost of living and the removal of fuel subsidy.

Expressing her gratitude, one of the widows who received a bag of rice, Madam Rahab shared her plight, revealing that her household had gone to bed without food for two days.
