IPOB Lawyer Slams Sheikh Gumi's Arming Igbo Youths' Statement As Dangerous by Titusele87(op): 8:07am On Jan 28, 2025
SHEIKH GUMI AND HIS MISGUIDED AND MALICIOUS PROPOSAL: By Sir Ifeanyi Ejiofor, Esq

My attention has been drawn to an absurd statement by the prominent Islamic cleric Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, widely reported across online and print media. In his latest opinion, Sheikh Gumi proposed that the government should arm Igbo youths to counter IPOB, a suggestion that is both divisive and inflammatory. I categorically state as follows:

1. Sheikh Gumi's Complicity in Northern Insecurity: It is well-known that Sheikh Gumi, driven by a questionable obsession with monetary benefits, has played a significant role in exacerbating terrorism and banditry across Northern Nigeria. His actions have contributed to the region's dire state of insecurity.

2. Defender of Enemies of the State: Sheikh Gumi has gained notoriety for his defence of individuals and groups waging violent campaigns against Nigeria. Despite his open affiliations with such elements, he remains untouched, enjoying a troubling level of immunity.

3. Gumi's Accomplices Under Investigation: One of Gumi’s emissaries is currently in the custody of the State Security Service for his role in promoting banditry. It is difficult to ignore the likelihood that Sheikh Gumi covertly enables such activities while acting as their chief negotiator.

4. Misguided Advice on Arming the South East: Sheikh Gumi’s inability to address the rampant terrorism and insecurity in his region makes his advice to arm youths in the South East, not only hypocritical but also dangerous.

5. Manipulating the Narrative Against the South East: It is clear that the criminal activities in the South East are not the work of IPOB but rather, opportunistic criminals masquerading as freedom fighters. Sheikh Gumi’s suggestion would only serve to pit Igbo people against one another, plunging the region into chaos.

6. IPOB's Stance Against Criminals: IPOB has repeatedly distanced itself from these criminal elements and, in its recent press release, even offered to collaborate with local security outfits to eliminate such threats.

7. Gumi's Hidden Agenda: The ultimate goal of Sheikh Gumi appears to be the destabilization of Igbo land, creating a scenario where brothers turn against brothers, resulting in needless bloodshed and destruction.

8. Unity Against External Intruders: Despite the political conspiracies against the Igbos, the most marginalized ethnic group in Nigeria, we have resolved to take our destiny into our own hands. Together, we will fight the real intruders who wreak havoc in our land.

9. A Message to Sheikh Gumi - Let it be clear: Sheikh Gumi’s divisive mission is dead on arrival. The Igbo people have learned their lessons through hard and painful experiences and will not fall for such manipulative tactics.

Sheikh Gumi’s suggestion to arm Igbo youths to counter IPOB is dangerous and divisive. It risks escalating violence and pitting communities against each other. Instead of solving insecurity, it could worsen it, especially in the already tense South East. Gumi’s history of defending bandits in the North raises questions about his motives.

Wetin make i talk ooo!

Okay, The Sheikh may be a little bit right here. Let Igbos fight for themselves. They have Ogbunigwe aka Ojukwu bucket and other weapons of mass destruction from the Biafla peliod, let them bring them to use! They have been accusing FG of being behind the killings in the SE. Let FG hands out.

And make FG no arm anybody!

Yoruba no dey fear anything. Tinubu boldly confronted them and won
The same Tinubu who cowardly asked, 'Where are the cows?' when killer herdsmen were ravaging the entire Southwest and engaging in a killing spree.

The same Tinubu who went on a demonic Muslim-Muslim ticket just to please the North.

The gumi cow think he's wise,they want Igbos to be fighting And killing themselves for Nigeria.

The federal power and Eastern Governors they'l have been using is not working.



This was the very reason they recruited the criminal in Finland, make him fighting ipob indirectly while shouting free MNk.


Tired to use him gets ipob tagged violent and terrorist group before international communities and civilized world.

Thank God for ipob leadership that saw what I saw and disassociated him and his criminality from ipob.

Today he have been arrested in Finland, But Ipob family in Finland are free and do their things without any harassment.






If they love one Nigeria so much,they should recruit northern and Yorubas youths send them East to fight to keep Nigeria one.

Sheikh Gumi is a terrorist.
And northern youths are 10x prone to be terrorists that any other region.
Re: IPOB Lawyer Slams Sheikh Gumi's Arming Igbo Youths' Statement As Dangerous by elipheleh(m): 8:44am On Jan 28, 2025
Igbos are peace loving people and bussiness oriented.
We do not need arms, we need access to bussiness grants and loans.

This terrorist Gumi is only mocking, because he doesn't even really mean it. He said it as a reverse psychology tactics. Someone that is afraid of Igbos and said Igbos are dominating Nigeria during Jonathan's presidency.

Forget this terrorrist Gunmi.
Re: IPOB Lawyer Slams Sheikh Gumi's Arming Igbo Youths' Statement As Dangerous by BoldBrainz(m): 8:48am On Jan 28, 2025
If Nigeria had any semblance of a functioning society, Sheikh Gumi should have long been incarcerated in Guantanamo bay.

Una too talk..

As COWARDs your DNA is noticable without a microscope. grin

As regards the NORTH...

Who killed 3 OBAs.....North
Who Annexed ILORIN....North
Who fight and kill in SW ...North


Who does the Fulani North fear the Most ...SE

Gumi, just exposed to the world that ESN and other groups are smashing their plans. That is why they employ JIHADIST security agencies to actually confront and kill harmless IGBO youths .

Let GUMI and his Fulani brethren know this .SE will NEVER smash their head on the ground to worship their Allah.

Bashir Ahmad...also made a very inciting and similar statement.

But the LORD will not abandon his Children

Any herdsmen seen in the bushes, the rest is history, and they know! cool That is why they are crying profusely. cool

In 2025, ibo wo-MEN hide under their beds 🛌 every Monday because of a fellow man coughing continents away.

In 1967, Ojukwu ran away from a Yoruba man after chestbeating. He ran away in his wife's skirts.

In 2019, Nnamdi Kanu ran away too.

In 1966, Victor Banjo, a Yoruba man led the Biafur0 army when all the wo-MEN were hiding in their wife's skirts.

Tell us more about your generational cowardice grin
grin grin grin

Yes o you truly know history about cowardice.
If cowardice was a person, his name is Yoruba.
A tribe that can't confront Igbos who killed their leaders in 1967.

It takes combined 248 tribes to fight the great Igbo tribe without winning the dot nation for 3 years. If tribes dey talk, yoruba no suppose even open mouth. All their weak soldiers we see on internet being beaten and slapped to the ground by women.

If heroism was a person, we give it to the Igbos.

If na only Yorubas vs Igbos, we all know that yorubas for become fetchers of water and carriers of wood for Igbos since 1967.

Ojukwu is greater than Adolf Hitler + Putin.

No yoruba can ever produce his kind.
