My incarceration was a divine test– Farouk Lawan

ByBayero Ade

Farouk Lawan, the former member of the House of Representatives, recently visited his constituency, Bagwai/Shanono Federal Constituency, for the first time since his release from prison in October.

Reflecting on his time behind bars, Lawan described it as a test from God that imparted important life lessons.

Wearing a red cap with the Kwankwasiyya movement’s insignia, led by Rabiu Kwankwaso, Lawan was welcomed by the district head, Shehu Ahmed, and a crowd of supporters.

He made it clear that his visit was not politically motivated but rather a gesture of gratitude for the community’s unwavering support during his difficult years of imprisonment.

Lawan drew a parallel between his ordeal and the story of Prophet Yusuf (Joseph), emphasizing that, like Yusuf, he believes he can rise from adversity and achieve greater things in the future.

    Someone who should have remained silent and enjoy the remnants of his loots. Unfortunately, we celebrate these corrupt politicians and make them comfortable in our society. Instead of treating them as outcasts. I remember Bode George, James Ibori and late Alamaseigha
