Tinubu deceiving north, he won’t get second term -Gumi
A northern Islamic cleric Ahmad Gumi has made an innuendo targeted at President Bola Tinubu, asserting northerners would stop him from getting a second term in 2027.
This is according to a report by Daily Trust, citing Gumi’s viral video. The report says the cleric didn’t actually mention the president in name but he was apparently referring to him.Â
Gumi, reportedly, said that ‘hypocrites and worthless people’ supported the Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
He is also said to have expressed sadness about southerners leading ‘command and control of Nigeria’s military even though a northerner is minister of defence.
Gumi, in the said video, equally knocked Federal Capital Territory (FCT) minister Nyesom Wike, describing him as “satanic”.
Gumi allegedly said, “The Minister of the FCT is a Satanic person; I said it before when he was appointed and some people were grumbling.Â
“He has gone and brought the Israeli Ambassador, that’s what someone sent and I am yet to watch it. I am not sure.Â
“But what is confirmed is he said they will collaborate with the Israelis on Abuja’s security issues. Abuja will now become like Tel Aviv and when they see anyone with a beard like us, they will say it is Bin Laden; go and kill him.
“Where are those that worked for the Muslim-Muslim ticket? Hypocrites and worthless people.Â
“Abuja is becoming an extension of Tel Aviv and security is the bastion of the people. Have you not heard the silence? They know what they are doing. One Miyetti Allah leader came and told me that if they come to me with a proposal of negotiation with bandits, I should not be part of it, that I should leave it alone.
“It is a decoy. Muslims are the heads of the Ministry of Defence, of what significance is it? The real people in charge of Command and Control, those holding the guns and shooting, are we the ones? We are not the ones; they are playing us. There is an agenda. All means of money and economic power have been hijacked by them, they are planning to deceive us for four years and get eight years. They will not, Insha Allah
“I want to tell you, there is no way Northerners doing their legitimate business will get one billion naira. Our rich people cannot get anything except those they trust. They only trust them because they are doing what they want. Anyone whose loyalty they are not sure of, they will crush him in a few months.”
