2015: Jonathan’s Re-election Will Set Nigeria Ablaze Again – Gumi by Anasko(m): 7:28am On Oct 25, 2014
By: Luka Binniyat
KADUNA – Well known Islamic Cleric,
Sheik Dr. Ahmed Gumi has foretold
of violence should President
Goodluck Jonathan go on to contest
and win the 2015 Presidential
election.
Gumi made this known in an open
letter he wrote the President
yesterday and made available to
Vanguard in Kaduna.
Reads the letter: “We have never met
despite the fact that we were all born
and we lived for more than half a
century in this great vast country
Nigeria. It’s here we all grew up and
were educated and I presume except
by divine prudence it’s here that we
will all be buried.
“So what truly matters is the legacy
that we will bequest our children and
the next generation of Nigerians to
come. We will not want it a burnt
country with hundreds of thousands
dead, maimed or displaced people
because of the thoughtlessness and
recklessness of its stewardship.
“Nigeria today is a single railway line
with two heavily loaded trains
spending towards each other in
opposite direction.
President Jonathan
“You need to come out of the cocoon
and face the reality. Denial of the
truth can never solve problems.
“Mr. President, from what I heard
from people who are close to you, is
that you are humble with a soft heart.
But still humility is never enough for
an effective leadership. Leadership is
about listening and taking the good
advices from people of wisdom not
from those that benefit from you or
have any agenda other than the unity
and progress of this Nation.
“The mantle of the leadership of this
country was given to you under oath.
Almost four years ago you swore to
protect ‘the interest of the
sovereignty, integrity, solidarity, well-
being and prosperity of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria’. You said: ‘ I will
not allow my personal interest to
influence my official conduct or my
official decisions; and ‘I will do right
to all manner of people, according to
law, without fear or favour, affection
or ill-will’
“Unfortunately, many people
including me before God believe you
broke some of your oath. I’ll only
need to refer you back to the honest
open letter advice you were given by
your political godfather. You appear
more Ijaw than Nigerian. It’s seldom
fathers will deceive their children.
Yet you never listen. And sadly by
your recalcitrance you are
dangerously leading this nation to
chaos and turmoil that only God
knows were it will end.
“Muslims have officially registered to
you on occasions your partiality.
Northern groups have complained
about your bias. The youth about
your neglect.
“You have divided the nation gravelly
on the religious divided. Already we
heard a call in a church that you are
now a savior. Now, not of Nigeria but
the church in Nigeria. With this
religious zeal on both sides, each
side looking at the wrong people for
salvation the nation is heading
towards disaster.
“My fellow country man, it’s
unfortunate that your stand on many
issues have made you into a
polarizing figure while the exalted
office you occupy needs a
nationalistic one. Surely with the
Christian votes and northern PDP
followers you can win another
election but you will also set the
nation into another turmoil because
that segment of the nation that
rejects you do so because they
believe rightly or wrongly you are
involved negatively in the Boko
Haram Saga. The natural thing any
good leader will do in this situation
is to step down for a person all the
segments of the nation will have
confidence with for their well-being.
A credible person that will not stir
apprehension. The decision is not
about your rights but about
responsibility.
“Therefore as you pray in the Holy
Land seek for God’s indulgence to
show you the light of honor and do
the right thing. It’s God’s command
that Nigeria stay united and ‘what
therefore God hath joined together,
let not man put asunder’.
“A word of wisdom says: ‘He who
consults is never disappointed and
he who seeks God’s choice never
regret’ so please don’t brush it aside
call men of wisdom to advice you
too.
“I for a start, I am hereby candidly
advising you to relinquished your
presidential ambition because of
peace, stability and well being of
millions of innocent Nigerians. There
are many politicians that can ‘finish’
it on your behalf. The PDP can
present Akpabio or Obi or Orji etc.
“I rest my case here.
“Ahmad Gumi”

So GEJ should not contest even though he has the constitutional right to do so just for fear of the violence some selfish politicians will incite if he wins?
Dream on!
This is not time to please any particular set of people or group, it's about exercising his political right and if he wins, so be it
