Senate president, David Mark, spoke the bitter truth to authorities Wednesday, warning northern governors the nation can no longer accept the Almajiris system which leaves millions of alms-begging children potential “miscreants”.

``It is a system that is counter-productive, it is a breeding ground for irresponsible miscreants and we cannot tolerate it,” Mr. Mark said.

``I had to call the man who introduced Sharia on the issue(That should be Ahmed Yerima, former Zamfara state), because wrongly or rightly, I think he is knowledgeable in Islamic affairs.

``He told me categorically that the almajiri system is not an Islamic injunction. We must admit that politicians in the north have failed over the years to stem the almajiri system. More: http://www.spammer.com/2013/05/mark-says-northern-govs-feed-fat-on.html
