Kemi Olaitan in Ibadan
An Islamic group, Federation of Ahlus-Sunnah Organizations in Nigeria (FASON), has declared that Islam has no link with terrorism, banditry, kidnapping or any other criminal activities.
This is just as it said anyone who believes in the teachings and principles of Islam will not engage in any form of criminal activities against either individuals, groups or communities.
The National Amir of the group, Sheikh Tajudeen Abdul-Kareem (Baba Lagbeni), made the revelations while addressing a press conference in Ibadan, attended by Deputy National Amir of FASON, Alhaji Salisu Abdullahi; Amir of Universal Muslim Brotherhood, Alhaji Abdulateef Olaniyan and Chairman of Sharia Panel in Oyo State, Sheikh Abdullahi Adedeji.
