Mohammed Al-Issa, secretary-general of the Muslim World League, has arrived in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital, for the international conference on security and national unity.
Al-Issa and his delegation were received at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport on Monday by Mohammed Idris, minister of information and national orientation; Ali Pate, minister of health and social welfare; Ahmed Aliyu, governor of Sokoto; and other dignitaries.
The event, organised by Jama’atu Izalatil Bidiah wa Iqamatis Sunnah (JIBWIS Nigeria) in collaboration with the Muslim World League of Saudi Arabia, will be held at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre in Abuja on Tuesday (today).
The conference is themed ‘International Conference on Security for Sustainable Socio-economic Development’.
Speaking after receiving the Saudi delegation, Garbadeen Mohammad, chairman of the conference’s media and publicity committee, said Al-Issa is a key figure and co-host of the conference.
Mohammad said the conference has a broader focus on socio-economic development, religious inclusivity, tolerance, and peaceful coexistence.
“The fact that it is an Islamic-based organisation does not mean that it is strictly for Islamic development. It is for the development of mankind, humanity as a whole,” Mohammed said.
He added that the Muslim World League’s leadership had convened similar conferences in other continents.
Mohammed added that the programme will feature high-level plenary sessions, expert panels on countering terrorism and armed banditry, building community resilience and promoting sustainable peace, as well as global partnership roundtables focused on advancing sustainable socio-economic development.
