Sheikh Gumi Takes Medical Outreach To Herdsmen In Kogi Forest by ikorodureporta: 6:54am On Nov 24, 2021
Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, a trained medical doctor and retired Army captain, has taken a team of medical personnel to the forests in Kogi State where they offered medical services to Fulani herdsmen and their families.

Gumi, who recently established a school for the herdsmen in a Kaduna forest, is at the forefront of an advocacy of positive engagement with the bandits who many believe comprised mainly Fulani.

A statement made available to Vanguard by Malam Tukur Mamu, spokesperson of Sheikh Gumi, reads: “Barely one week after commissioning a school for Fulani herders and other settlers in the strategic Kagarko Game Reserve, Kaduna (where it used to be a centre for organizing operations by bandits), renowned Islamic scholar, Sheikh Dr. Ahmad Abubakar Mahmud Gumi has yet again led a team of Islamic preachers and medical team to another strategic Fulani settlement called Rugan Ardo Zubairu Okebukun in Ayangban Grazing Reserve, in Yagba Local Government Area of Kogi State.

“The Sheikh who went with journalists to see things for themselves left Kaduna on Monday with an entourage of more than 40 people and a fully equipped medical van for the purpose of providing medical support to Fulani victims of violence that were forced to relocate from South East due to consistent attacks on them by IPOB members.

“The medical outreach van is fully air-conditioned with enough space for consultation, bed for observation, space for drugs, pharmacist, nurses, doctor and a small unit for emergency delivery for pregnant women and even CS surgery in case of such emergency.

“Gumi’s choice of Kogi this time around to offer medical support to mainly Fulanis that are victims of violence with his highly committed team is largely due to the alarming number of such victims that were forced to relocate from the South East and South West to Kogi State and to appreciate the Kogi State Government for welcoming them to the state and for allowing them to freely decide where to settle down in parts of the state.”

“Some of the members of the team in the entourage of the Saudi trained scholar in Islamic jurisprudence includes Malam Tukur Mamu (Dan Iyan Fika), the publisher of DESERT HERALD Newspaper, former Executive Secretary of NHIS, Prof. Usman Yusuf who is leading the highly organize medical team, Col Sambo Diri Mni Rtd, Sheikh Sanusi Khutama, Malam Nasiru Ayuba, Sheikh Nuhu Al Hafiz, Malam Auwal Jika Mai Waina, Sheikh Isah Abdullahi Adarkake, Malam Sanusi Malumfashi.

“In the opening speech, the spokesman of Sultan Bello Mosque urged the Fulanis in the Ruga to embrace western education as well as Islamic education while eschewing violence or any form of banditry.”

“He also told them that the team is here for medical outreach and to treat the Fulanis and any other tribe or religion that are in need of medical attention.

“Welcoming the the team, Ardo Zubairu appreciated Dr. Ahmad Gumi and his team for coming to the aid of the Fulanis.”

This one is on a mission with bandits! Let's see as it unfolds....why must they have their own community in the forest? Can't they love among the people? Graze their cattle and return home? So their own community should be built for them in the forest? So government should increase their budget, build for Normal community and build for bandits in the forest? I hate what Nigeria is becoming

This country keeps getting crazier by the day . So Gumi is now focusing his efforts on treating killers and bandits but neglecting his own people who have been victims of herdsmen attack ? This is the proper definition of misplaced priorities

He has made enough money from his crime

Now he can afford buildings in forest

In reality those buildings are actually jihad camps for the terrorists to have proper shelter

Operation make terrorists comfortable in their habitat

Nothing it is the individual taking the outreach that should be chased away. He should take care of the people in his home state first before taking such outreach to anywhere.

I believe there are northerners and Muslims here reading this post and also on Nairaland.
I’ll love to get your opinions on how things are going with this gumi man and this whole bandit and herdsmen thing. Please speak freely with and open mind and do not attack any other tribe. Thank you I’ll be expecting

The story said Medical outreach to Kogi due to displacement of herdsmen from South East and South West but the heading on front page says IPOB attack just to vilify Igbo people and IPOB and generate traffic to make money.

It's like 70% of political stories on Nairaland front page to generate traffic has to do with IPOB, Igbos, South East, meth, IPOB, Igbos, South East, meth, IPOB, Igbos, South East meth shocked

Gumi has been empowered by the government! Just keep quiet, and listen to Gumi rhetorics over again!

*Herdsmen should be compensated
*Herdsmen should be allowed to move freely
*Engaging herdsmen with the military will be counter productive
*Builds hospital and school for them


If you think one Nigeria lives, then you are dead!

I always hear, not all herdsmen are terrorist, I agree. But why can't genuine herdsmen stop moving around and stay in ranches. This will limit the crimes by bad herdsmen. When you stay in ranches, then any herdsmen seen moving around will be identified as bandit. Will cows die if herdsmen don't move around?
