Some residents of Katsina State came out en masse on Tuesday to observe a special prayer session to seek Allah’s intervention against the lingering economic hardship and insecurity in the state.

The prayer session, which was held at the premises of Katsina Arabic Teachers College playground, was widely attended amid tight security.

The residents prayed to Almighty Allah to bring an end to the lingering economic hardship, hunger, and insecurity, among other challenges bedeviling them.

The residents performed the ‘Al-Qunut prayer’, a type of supplication offered during prayer at a specific point while standing and was recommended especially when a calamity befalls any community.

A similar prayer session was conducted at the Filin Samji, Filin Yammawa and Filin Canada football grounds, all within the Katsina metropolis.

According to some of the participants, they resorted to such prayers as the last option for them towards addressing hunger, insecurity and other challenges.

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.
