However, the man leading the congregation in their so called way of praying affirmed oneness of the Almighty Allah, according to the translation saying “Allah is the greatest and nothing should be worshipped except Allah and Saikou Alasan Mbakeh is a prophet of Allah.”

Another man with a stick is calling on the followers to fear only Allah, worship only Allah, and trust only Allah.
