Mohamed argues for a case to enlighten religious leaders to address social problems and raise their voices against injustice and corrupt governments. Or is it possible all this plunder of public resources and corruption in private business happen outside the religious economy?

Finally, it is about time that true religious leaders asserted their God-given authority and called political leaders to order for the sake of the vulnerable among their flock. It is such a dishonour to witness those called to faith bow to worship political gods and their loot.
