Emir of Kano Muhammad Sanusi has offered a solution to the rising wave of violence in the society.
He urged the government to create jobs and politicians to rein in their supporters.
Sanusi spoke during the traditional Hawan Nasarawa at the Government House in Kano, the state capital.
“I am calling on political leaders to caution their followers against political violence and thuggery,” he said.
He also urged the government to create employment for youths to reduce the economic hardship being faced.
He said: “If the youths are employed or empowered, the level of hardship faced by many families will reduce.”
The monarch also called on the Federal Government to revive agriculture in order to attain self-sufficiency in food production.
He prayed for peace, tranquility and unity in the country and the safe return of Nigerian pilgrims from the Holy land.
