From Agaju Madugba, Katsina
Frustrated by the apparent fruitlessness of five days of the #EndBadGovernance protests, thousands of Katsina residents on Tuesday thronged various centres in the metropolis in fervent prayer sessions to God to intervene in their affairs.
They identified some unnamed politicians, traditional rulers and security personnel, among others, as architects of the lingering economic hardship, hunger, insecurity and poor governance plaguing the nation.
At the Katsina Arabic Teachers’ College playground, the participants specifically prayed Almighty Allah to “eliminate” all persons who have anything to do with the lingering problems in the state and in the country at large.

They also offered the Muslim Al-Qunut prayer, a special prayer rendition recommended when calamity befalls a community or in times of severe turbulence in the land.
Similar prayer sessions were conducted at the Filin Samji, Filin Yammawa and Filin Canada football grounds.
Some of the participants told reporters, “We came here to worship God and pray for Him to wipe away our tears.”
