The 1435 A.H Ramadan fast would begin tomorrow.  This followed the non-sighting of the moon by experts deployed by the Sultan of Sokoto, and the President General, Nigeria Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, NSCIA, His eminence, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar to various communities and forest areas all over the country to look out for the new moon.
Also, The Secretary General of the Islamic body, Prof Ishaq Oloyede in a chat with Saturday Vanguard yesterday said “the moon was not sighted anywhere in the country and so, Muslims  would begin fasting on Sunday and observe Tarawih tonight.”As early as 6pm yesterday, Muslims including journalists had gathered at the palace of the Sultan of Sokoto in anticipation for the new moon. But as at 9pm yesterday, there was no indication that the moon would be sighted.
Saturday Vanguard gathered that there was a mutual understanding within the Muslim Community world-over that once there was no information to that effect by 8.30pm, it would mean that Muslims would count Sha’ban to 30 days and commence Ramadan fast thereafter.
