The Sultan made the appeal while speaking during a Public Lecture and Special Book Presentation in honour of Professor Is’haq Oloyede at the University of Ilorin on Thursday, October 11.
Oloyede clocked 70 on Wednesday and formally retired from the services of the University of Ilorin.
The Sultan said Nigerians should stop the habit of cursing their leaders, instead urging them to rather pray for the leaders no matter how bad they are.
“Don’t curse your leaders, no matter how bad they may be, but pray for them. Never talk ill of your leaders. Even, if a leader is bad, pray for him," he counselled.
“If you pray for him/her, Almighty God can make him/her turn a new leaf and make him/her a better person that you will enjoy.
“Don’t condemn your leaders. No matter how bad they are, pray for them."
