By Lateef taiwo

An organization of young, intelligent and committed persons under the auspices of the Concerned Northern Forum who are interested and passionate about the growth, development and unity of the Northern region have congratulated the newly appointed Registrar/CEO of the National Board for Arabic and Islamic Studies, NBAIS, Prof.

This as contained in a statement signed and made available to newsmen in Kaduna by the Spokesperson of the forum Abdulsalam Mohammed Kazeem said Prof Sulaiman’s appointment is a testament to his hard work, dedication, and exceptional leadership qualities.

It said he is indeed a round peg in a round hole because he is a seasoned Islamic scholar and administrator per excellence.

Adding, “Prof. Imam is bringing to the Board more than 20 years of teaching and research as well as pious religious observances according to the Sunnah. With his wealth of experience, it won’t take long before Islam will become the dominant religion not just in Nigeria but the entire West African Sub-region.”

The CNF also commended the former President, Muhammadu Buhari for appointing a highly qualified and experienced individual to lead the board saying “We believe that Prof Sulaiman’s wealth of experience and expertise in academia and administration will enable him to steer the NBAIS to greater heights.”

While urging Prof Sulaiman to build on the solid foundation and achievements of the former Registrar, Prof Shafiu, the CNF believed that with his leadership and the support of all stakeholders, the NBAIS will continue to thrive in its mandate to promote the study of Arabic and Islamic Studies in Nigeria.

“We appeal to all stakeholders, including members of the NBAIS staff, to give Prof Sulaiman all the necessary support needed to make him succeed in his new role.”

It is our belief that if given the support of stakeholders, the new Registrar will surpass level of infrastructural development recorded by his predecessors as so much needs to be done both at National Headquarters and all Zonal offices of the Board.
