In recent times, some Islamic clerics from the various Islamic sects in the Northern Region are verbally attacking each other through their daily Preachings.

Some residents who spoke to Soireenews say, the situation is currently threatening the peace and the conducive atmosphere of the Region.

A couple of months now, clerics from the Tijjaniya, Ahlu-Sunna and the Shia sects through radio and at any given opportunity disprove and condemn each other's knowledge on the teachings of Islam.

Since the beginning of this year, there has been counter debate and growing tension among the leaders and followers of the sects.

The leadership of the sects in due of that have been sermoned by the Northern Regional Security Council at the Regional Coordinating Council to find an amicable solution to the endless verbal attack, but the meeting ended inconclusively.

The Chief of Pishigu, Pishigu Naa Alhassan Andani noted that Allah's knowledge and revelations are very vast in the Quran and no human being can understand everything in the holy book, adding that the most important thing is for a Muslim to believe in the sovereign God.

Speaking to Journalists at his palace in Tamale, Pishigu Lana Andani appealed to the clergy to soften their stands and come out with digestible doctrines which would rather benefit their followers.
