A Kaduna-based Islamic scholar, Ahmad Gumi has made it clear that he does not take side with any politician or political party in Nigeria.

He stated this during the closing of Ramadan lecture for 2018, at Shaikh Sanusi Khalil Mosque at Rigachikun, Kaduna on Thursday.

On Buhari’s government, Gumi said: “Buhari is full of mistakes. Full of mistakes! He is a human being like anybody. And I swear to God that there are many people here in the North that can perform better than him.”

The cleric was reacting to claims that he was critical of the All Progressives Congress (APC), because he has friends in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The rumour emerged because of a picture of Gumi with two PDP leaders, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and former Kaduna State governor, Ramalan Yero, which he claimed was taken at a public event long ago.

“There was a picture that was snapped at a mosque in Rigachikun. When I was invited to attend a wedding fatiha, on arrival I met him (Mr Yero) and former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, at the mosque.

“Then he (Atiku) was still in APC as a member and contested against President Buhari at the primaries, while Yero was then in PDP as a governor in the state.

“I was asked to sit in their middle so I did. Now the picture is in circulation that I am a PDP member, that PDP paid me to work for them,” he said.

Gumi recalled also criticising the government of former President Goodluck Jonathan and asking the president to resign or be impeached.

“Nigeria’s newspaper carried a headline in 2012, when I said Jonathan has failed Nigerians and should resign. So I also find it a duty upon me to tell this government the truth, that it is full of mistakes, or else I become a hypocrite.

“Why I blamed Jonathan was because of blood in his hands because Boko Haram were putting bombs everywhere and the government was not doing enough.

“Anybody killed under your regime, you are responsible for that blood. If you have done your best, I can say yes, Allah can forgive you. But if you are relaxed, no; Allah will not forgive you. So it is the same thing now.

“The bloodshed now is more than during Jonathan’s regime. So now you judge yourselves to be fair. Our religion is a religion of fairness.

“Now more blood is shed from negligence, from sleeping, from laziness, from I-dont-care.

“If I am true to myself, as I called for the resignation of Jonathan, I should call for the resignation of President Buhari, and with immediate effect! And government paper should carry it also, if there is truth,” he stressed.

He has said it all... Like Jonathan like Buhari. Which way forward, Nigerians

watch how a Muslim Islamic cleric become a hero to the delusional ipob flat.head jews bcuz he criticized buhari

A cleric with honor

I'm glad to know we still have people in Nigeria who has concience to say the truth and not sell their soul for peanuts like Keyamo and Prof. sagay.
I always wonder why APC thinks everyone that criticize them is PDP member or PDP sponsor.
APC should use criticism as a feedback from electorates in measuring the deliveries of their electoral promises and not like witch hunt from anybody that criticize them.

This cleric better watch his back before buhari ragtag Fulani brothers change location from kaduna south and proceed to dump bullets at his enclavE.

Sheikh Gumi has been a man that would say it as it is. Only numbskull will insult him. #KICKPMB2DAURA

The cleric keeps shouting it loud that buhari is very incompetent and that there is more blood shed going on in this govt than the Jonathan government despite promises made by buhari yet they are hell bent in using propaganda which they are known for to shut him up . who knows they might even accuse him of sponsoring kidnapping

and you think you made sense with this rubbish you typed?
so anyone who speaks the truth should be condemned because of one useless brainless buhari

"I demanded same from President Jonathan when Boko Haram was killing Nigerians" - Sheik Gumi

Says Buhari has lost touch with the people if he thinks everyone asking him to do the right thing are sponsored by PDP

I guess you deserve 3 medals of which one goes to your parents as well

When you see an honourable individual, nothing convince you more than their words and actions.. Everything that happened durin GEJ tenure are still evidently happening now, we don't need to sugar coat it!


Eid Mubaraq to all my fellow muslim brothers nd sisters

Terrorists dem dem

You lot are not just normal, what has the topic got to do with what you just wrote? Ok let's assume the people you mentioned actually start praising him because he critised buhari, is that not a plus to their integrity, at least they are consistent in their opinions it doesn't matter who says it. To me that is steadfastness. You guys really need grow up

Never knew we had Muslims of this sort still existing.

I guess its not about religion, its more about integrity and mental exposure.

Funny how Buhari's failure is just mistakes, but Jonathan own is blood on his hands, are people not dying even more under Buhari, wonder on whose hands those blood will be on.
