The Concerned Northern Forum congratulates Prof Imam Yahuza Sulaiman on his appointment as the new Registrar/ CEO of the National Board for Arabic and Islamic Studies (NBAIS).

In a statement yesterday by Spokesperson of  the  Forum
Abdulsalam Mohammed Kazeem
expressed delight over the appointment, describing it as well deserved.

CNF noted that the emergence of
Prof. Sulaiman through a rigorous selection and highly competitive process, was a testament to his long years of academic excellence, hard work, and demonstration of great leadership skills.

The  Statement  stressed that as a Forum of young, intelligent and committed persons interested and passionate about the growth, development and unity of the Northern region  believed he is
round peg in a round hole saying,  as a seasoned Islamic scholar and administrator per excellence, Prof. Imam is bringing to the Board more than 20 years of teaching and research as well as pious religious observances according to the Sunnah.

“With his wealth of experience, it won’t take long before Islam will become the dominant religion not just in Nigeria but the entire West African Sub-region.


The CNF also commends the former President, Mohammadu Buhari for appointing a highly qualified and experienced individual to lead the board. We believe that Prof Sulaiman’s wealth of experience and expertise in academia and administration will enable him to steer the NBAIS to greater heights.

We urge Prof Sulaiman to build on the solid foundation and achievements of the former Registrar, Prof Shafiu. We believe that with his leadership and the support of all stakeholders, the NBAIS will continue to thrive in its mandate to promote the study of Arabic and Islamic Studies in Nigeria.

We appeal to all stakeholders, including members of the NBAIS staff, to give Prof Sulaiman all the necessary support needed to make him succeed in his new role.

It is our believe that if given the support of stakeholders, the new Registrar will surpass the level of infrastructural development recorded by his predecessors, so much needs to be done both at National Headquarters and all Zonal offices of the Board.
