  Sheikh Muhydeen Ajani Bello, the national missioner of Ansar-Ud-Deen Society of Nigeria, said a list of religious clerics who benefitted from the $2.1million arms deal will soon be made public by the federal government. Speaking at the weekend during the 2016 annual Ramadan lecture and special prayer for the nation, organised by the AUD in Abuja, Bello regretted that some Muslims were major actors in the arms deal, Today.ng reports. He said it was not the way of Islam, adding that the current administration led by President Muhammdu Buhari would not hesitate to deal with anyone guilty of stealing the nation’s wealth.

        Bello said: “Remember when you will return to Allah and give account of your deeds. For you, the clerics who also took from the arms fund, your game is up. The list of those clerics will soon be made public. It has been compiled and will soon be made public. This is a blind government and anybody caught this time around will be severely dealt with. “You were born naked without riches, fame and position. He, almighty Allah only chose to bestow all these privileges upon you, so that you could assist others. Let us all return to God.”
