He said, “Those we call miscreants, most of them are immigrants, and none boasts of Ilasa pedigree. No Ilasa-born is a miscreant. Those who had individually sought asylum here are the main problem of Ilasa but to the glory of Almighty Allah, we’ve been able to restore peace in the community.”

He revealed that the religion leaders have saddled themselves with the responsibility of educating the people in the community and convincing them to the right paths of life and praying fervently for the progress of the community.

Comparing the present situation in the community to some months back, he said, “If the community or society is doing great, the community leaders and religion leaders should be commended. But what the religion leaders have to do is to offer prayer. If there’s a problem, it is prayer we will resort to. It is obvious to all that the community has been experiencing unprecedented peace and that’s because the leaders in the community have been working hand-in-hand to uphold the common course of communal peace.

“We will continue trying to lecture everyone in the community especially the parents in order to pinch their sense of parental responsibility on their children so that they would not become wayward, and for the parents to reap the fruits of their labour over them.”
