Controversial Islamic cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has reiterated his call for bandits and herdsmen to be granted amnesty.
Gumi said bandits were ready to lay down their arms, hence the Federal Government should grant them amnesty.
He explained that granting bandits amnesty would stop further bloodshed and hostilities in the North.
The cleric spoke at the enrolment of the third group of students into the free orphans’ healthcare and education support programme organised by the Kawo Islamic Foundation in Kaduna.
He urged the Federal government to educate and provide bandits with funds after granting them amnesty.
According to Gumi: “If there is anything that can stop the shedding of blood, it is better just like what happened with the Niger Delta militants, they were shedding blood and vandalising pipelines, but where they were ready to drop their weapons with an amnesty that will take care of them, I think the same thing can apply to herdsmen.
“We have met them and they are ready to put down their arms, but when they put down their arms if you do not educate them and provide them with funds to take care of them, they will go back to the same old ways.
“Still, we call for amnesty and stopping all hostilities because we know how we can deal with it peacefully.”

So said d Federal Minister of Banditry Affairs. Shehu Sani postulations of making them Federal Civil Servants coming through already. How u draw analogy between Banditry and Niger Delta militancy surprise us. The Niger Delta agitators or militants as they were referred to were demanding a fair share of d proceeds of what mother nature blessed their geographic space with that d FG often shortchange them as they bear d brunt of environmental pollution but these nomadic killing squad actually bring nothing to d table

So says the official spokesman and minister of bandits and terrorists affairs.The DSS, Army have never deemed it fit to get this man invited to give Intel or even get him arrested for openly advocating for treasonable elements yet peaceful protesters are terrorists in their warped wicked reasoning.

Nothing new.Armed and unarmed terrorists are in government. After all, "Banditry is not a FG offence in Nigeria." according to the legendary lying machine of this satanic regime.

Does he know all the bandits in the north

No need granting them amnesty...

They are already Federal Workers.

What exactly is the bandit fighting for to be grated amnesty

The presidency said they are just doing business as bandits outh to do

How can the government grant amnesty to people carrying out a legitimate business with out bearing any sessetionist flag which is more a serious crime than killing and bombing and kidnapping

I thought most of their leader have been giving merit employment at the customs. Nigeria my zoo country

Always a catch 22 with this guy.

Is he speaking for specific groups or all the groups of bandits??

This version of blood money is Maad.

Minister of banditry affairs have spoken,
Gumi the power broker

The FG Should welcome them immediately...
