Abuja, Nigeria The World Peace Movement’s Africa Tour 2026 has drawn widespread attention across Nigeria, with religious scholars, community leaders, students, and national media outlets highlighting its message of peace, tolerance, and social harmony.
The movement, led by Islamic scholar Shaykh Ahmad Dabbagh, has been featured by several major Nigerian media organizations during its Abuja engagements, reflecting increasing public interest in initiatives aimed at promoting unity and dialogue across religious and cultural lines.
According to reports shared during the tour, the campaign emphasizes integrity, compassion, justice, and people-centered development as essential foundations for sustainable peace in Nigeria and across Africa.
Multiple Nigerian media outlets, including Vanguard, The Nation, Daily Nigerian, The Guardian, NAN, and Radio Nigeria, covered different aspects of the movement’s activities and public addresses.
During one of the keynote sessions, Shaykh Ahmad Dabbagh stressed that peace cannot be achieved through political rivalry or religious division. Instead, he called for collective responsibility, mutual respect, and moral leadership.
“Competition rooted in religion or politics undermines unity. What is needed is a collective commitment to compassion, fairness and generosity as guiding principles for peaceful coexistence,” he stated during an address covered by national media.
The campaign also focused heavily on discouraging the misuse of religion to justify violence or hatred. Organizers urged followers of different faiths to uphold the original teachings of peace, mercy, and coexistence promoted by their religious traditions.
At a public lecture attended by students and community members, speakers encouraged Nigerians to reclaim a culture of religious tolerance and constructive dialogue, especially among young people. Educational institutions and mosques that hosted the events reportedly saw large attendance and active participation.
The World Peace Movement described the Nigeria leg of the Africa Tour 2026 as part of a broader mission to strengthen social cohesion and encourage ethical leadership throughout the continent. The organization says its initiatives are centered on rebuilding communities through spirituality, education, and humanitarian values.
Social media coverage of the events has also gained traction, with supporters sharing images, speeches, and press highlights under hashtags related to the Africa Tour 2026 and the World Peace Movement.
Observers note that the movement’s emphasis on peacebuilding and inter community understanding comes at a time when many African nations continue to face challenges linked to extremism, political tension, and social division.
Organizers concluded the Abuja sessions by reaffirming their commitment to expanding dialogue driven initiatives across additional African countries in the coming months.
