Sheikh Ahmad Gumi
Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) has condemned Sheikh Ahmad Gumi's recent divisive remarks and called for his immediate arrest and prosecution.
Gumi, a prominent cleric known for his controversial comments, was accused by HURIWA of acting as a spokesperson for terrorists in Nigeria, mingling with them and advocating for amnesty on their behalf, despite their involvement in violence, kidnappings, and other criminal activities.
Furthermore, HURIWA noted that Sheikh Gumi's recent comments regarding the appointment of Nyesom Wike as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) raised concerns. “Gumi criticized the decision to involve Israelis in Abuja's security, insinuating that this would lead to the city becoming an "extension of Tel Aviv.
