Sultan Demands Probe Into Reported Killing of Colonel Abdur-Razaq Ode

The Sultan of Sokoto, Muhammadu Sa’ad Abubakar, has called for an immediate investigation into the reported killing of Colonel Abdur-Razaq AbdulKarim Ode, an Igbo Muslim and senior military intelligence officer. He urged the Federal Government and the Armed Forces to establish the circumstances surrounding the alleged close-range shooting at the officer’s Abuja residence and ensure anyone responsible is brought to justice. He also called for an investigation into reports that members of the colonel’s family were targeted. The Sultan condemned hate speech and hostility directed at minority Muslims and Christians across the country. He said justice, tolerance and peaceful coexistence are essential to national unity.
