Henasru- Lahi- l- Fatih Society ( NASFAT) Worldwide has called on the media to give accurate account of Islamic related activities without fear or favour.

The group made the call at its yearly Iftar with the media, a platform where media veterans and practitioners engage stakeholders in a stimulating discussion to use religion to foster peace, love and development in the country.

Gathering at the Iftar were the executive members of NASFAT worldwide.

The organisation called for fair, truthful and objective reportage of Islam and Muslims.

The Chief Imam of the Nasrul- lahi- li Fathi Society of Nigeria ( NASFAT), Abdul

“People need to be objective and sincere in their reportage because on the Day of Judgment, Allah will ask everybody to provide evidence of what you have said.”

The CEO of Aims Media,

Hajia Aminat Muhammad, urged journalist and individual to hold leaders accountable before they get into office.
