As some state governors bicker over the issue of Almajiri and COVID-19, the Governor of Zamfara State, Bello Mohammed Matawalle has said that his administration will not repatriate any Almajiri from the state.

Governor Matawalle also called on the Islamic scholars in the country to promote the teaching of Justice and unity among their followers for the purpose of having a united Nigeria The Governor said that Islamic scholars were known for teaching Justice and unity which are the guiding principles of any development.
