Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as
Igboho, has cautioned Islamic scholar, Ahmad Gumi, against his “careless”
remarks and preachings.
Igboho vowed never to fold his arms and allow Gumi to heat
up Nigeria’s polity through preachings capable of inciting violence in the
country.
Gumi had said Christians can’t be trusted with Nigeria’s
security, calling for the removal of the Minister of the Federal Capital
Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike.
The controversial Islamic scholar made the call following
Wike’s meeting with an Israeli envoy, during which they discussed the security
of Abuja.
Accusing President Bola Tinubu of appointing Southern
Christians into key positions, Gumi had said the current administration might
not get a second term.
Condemning Gumi’s remark, Igboho said the Sheikh was trying
to re-secure his negotiation contract with bandits under President Bola
Tinubu’s administration.
A statement he signed reads partly: “We know Gumi’s pedigree
and his antics. Before the advent of Tinubu, individuals like him should have
been explaining their roles to the security agencies on the festering
insurgency in the northern parts of the country.
“While we will continue to advocate for an egalitarian
society, we cannot fold our arms and allow Gumi to heat up the polity through
his careless, destructive and inciting statements via his preachings. Nigeria’s
security as enshrined in the 1999 Constitution, must not be abused by anybody
no matter how highly or lowly placed.
“We are not advocates for the Federal Government, but we
remain part of critical stakeholders in Nigeria’s project, hence the need to
drum sanity and decorum into the ears of anybody with traces of tendencies for
religious fanaticism.
“For peace to reign supreme, it is incumbent on all and
sundry to desist from any act that triggers mutual suspicion, distrust and
needless crisis among Nigerians.”
