Trump’s airstrikes: Halt military cooperation with US immediately – Sheikh Gumi tells Tinubu govt

By Francis Ugwu


Islamic cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has called on the Federal Government to immediately halt all military cooperation with the United States following reported US airstrikes.

Gumi warned that American involvement could worsen Nigeria’s security challenges and undermine national sovereignty.

Gumi made the call in a statement posted on his Facebook page on Friday.

He said while Islam permits the fight against terrorism, such actions should only be carried out by what he described as “clean hands,” arguing that the United States lacks the moral authority to lead such efforts because of its global military record.

According to the cleric, Nigeria made a mistake by allowing foreign powers to play a role in its counterterrorism operations, insisting that “terrorists do not truly fight terrorists” and that such interventions often result in civilian casualties and hidden political motives.

Gumi warned that allowing Nigeria to become a theatre of war would attract anti-US forces into the country, further destabilising it.

He also cautioned that US involvement, particularly under claims of protecting Christians, could polarise the country along religious lines.

The cleric further argued that airstrikes alone cannot defeat terrorism, stressing that effective counterterrorism requires strong ground operations, which he said Nigeria has enough personnel to carry out if properly organised.

“This is the mistake Nigeria has made. Terrorists don’t fight terrorists in truth; they may only kill innocent people and have ulterior motives behind the drama of fighting ‘terror’.

“As a principle, no nation should allow its land to be a theater of war. And no nation should allow its neighbors to be their enemies.

“If Nigeria wants military assistance, China, Turkey, and Pakistan can do the job effectively,” part of his statement read.

Why is Gumi always thinking on behalf of the terrorists?

Terrorists don begin to cry.

The beautiful here is the fact US struck without civilian casualty. I don't know where our soldiers acquire their own target feom

The FG will not halt the cooperation until all the terrorists, bandits, extremists and Fulani ethnic militias are completely eliminated. We can’t continue pampering these killers in the name of one Nigeria. FG must continue to collaborate with the US and all other countries to bring an end to the madness that Gumi and his boys are unleashing in the Northern parts of the country. Every sane Nigerian should be in support of the cooperation.

The idi.ot is supporting terrorists from Turkey. Let him come back to the society he helped shape.

It totally beats my understanding as to why this terrorist sympathiser is still a free man. The bastard was deported from Saudi Arabia because of his extremist ideologies and links with extremists, but he is a saint to some northerners.

The fact that he's in Turkey no big deal. They can still do an Nnamdi Kanu on him and repatriate him to answer for his crimes.

Hand go soon tourch this one wherever he's hiding

The US needs to pick Gumi up. That man has so much information that will be critical for the US onslaught against isl..amic terrorists in Nigeria.

If Nigerian laws make him untouchable, as I have always suspected, I am sure US laws don't give a f*"k about anyone

Sheikh Gumi should be ignored.

Parkistan you said?
Do we still need to ask who's coordinating terrorists in this country?

He is in Turkey. Immediately the USA interest became obvious and gathered momentum, the terror parrot fled to a more secure Terror enclave thats part of NATO. Very strategic slowpoke.

See the terrorist general of the federation is talking

It’s time to address this Gumi affinity for jihadists

Hand go soon touch this man..let him return to Nigeria

Gumi makes some valid points here.
