In a bid to alleviate the lingering economic hardship and insecurity in the country, thousands of Katsina State residents on Tuesday, gathered for a special prayer session, seeking divine intervention.
The massive prayer gathering, held at the Katsina Arabic Teachers College playground, was replicated at other locations within the metropolis, including Filin Samji, Filin Yammawa, and Filin Canada football grounds amid tight security.
Residents performed the ‘Al-Qunut prayer’, a supplication offered during prayer, specifically recommended during times of calamity.
According to some of the participants, they resorted to such prayers as the last option for them towards addressing hunger, insecurity and other challenges in the country
The decision was apparently due to the persistent clash between security operatives and the Nigerian youths protesting against the high cost of living.
Organisers of the EndBadGovernance protests had earlier scheduled Saturday for such prayers to be held across various Mosques and Churches nationwide to seek divine intervention.
