Gumi: Bandits, Herdsmen Ready To Lay Down Arms, Grant Them Amnesty by valentineuwakwe(op): 9:27am On Nov 02, 2021
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.”

Mr Spokesman, let them come out of the bush with their hands up, well raised above their heads shouting “we surrender”. It’s unprofessional for the military to engage them that way, it’s even war crime.
But if you want the government to go and use amnesty to beg them in the bush to surrender then you are an enabler and should be thoroughly investigated.

This man behaves as if the bandits are precious to him like he has obligations to protect them.
Wetin de happen sef? Bandit bandit bandit everyday. Na the cleric work wey you carry for head be that?

I have not seen this man talked about the bandit victims ; he always talks in favour of bandit criminals.

If banditory nd kidnapping is d best approach to getting d attention of dis so-called administration, then I do not blame d Herdsmen or bandits. Because VIOLENCE is d only LANGUAGE dat d Gov't understands.

Ready by killing more people? Omo, this bubu's spokesman, chief terrorist and welfare officer of the hardworking bandits is so daring! Your guys are ready to lay down arms but they are sending peace message by killing more innocent people? Enjoy your time as a terrorist, you will meet your waterloo somehow someday
Re: Gumi: Bandits, Herdsmen Ready To Lay Down Arms, Grant Them Amnesty by Akwamkpuruamu: 9:40am On Nov 02, 2021
What about those killed and in IDPs what have you said about their plight?

Will you be happy with someone who appreciates and hold in high esteem the killers of your mother, father and/or siblings?

One day dem go kidnap Gumi, den right before him, a loved one will be killed, let's see if he will preach this 'taqiya'

Then victims too should be given scholarships and grants... Why is this beard fellow still walking free? A southerner can't speak for a terror group this way and still be a freeman. So much for one Nigeria.
Re: Gumi: Bandits, Herdsmen Ready To Lay Down Arms, Grant Them Amnesty by sapientia(m): 9:45am On Nov 02, 2021
I disagree with Gumin on this

You cannot grant Amnesty to federal civil servants

Though they do kidnapping BUSINESS as a legitimate side hustle

Buhari should just create a ransom ministry to ease business for them.

Re: Gumi: Bandits, Herdsmen Ready To Lay Down Arms, Grant Them Amnesty by 9japride(m): 10:19am On Nov 02, 2021
If they should be granted amnesty, then government should shut down all correctional facilities in the country and those held up there should be released and sponsored to further their education or learn a trade. Nonsense.

These animals think they are the same as niger delta people that are fighting for their lives that have been destroyed by successive northern elite led Nigerian government and their cohorts.

They are nothing but dysfunctional and delusional terrorists that deserved to be exiled to chad niger desert and left in the scorching heat wither away. Including the useless terrorist spokesperson.
