Chief Imam of Apo Legislative Quarters Mosque, Shiekh Nuru Khalid, has been sacked for delivering a sermon that criticised the government over killings in Nigeria.
It was earlier reported that the Imam was suspended by the Steering Committee of the mosque last Saturday.
But the chairman of the mosque committee, Senator Saidu Dansadau, announced yesterday that Khalid’s suspension had been upgraded to sack.
He said that Khalid was sacked for not being remorseful despite his suspension as the Imam of the mosque.
