Kaduna Born Islamic Cleric, Sheikh Gumi Insists That Repentant Bandits Should Be Granted Amnesty.
Renowned northern Islamic scholar, Sheikh AHMAD GUMI, is insisting that amnesty should be granted to repentant bandits.
He said if government could pardon coup plotters that committed treasonable felony, there was nothing wrong extending the same gesture to the bandits.
The Islamic cleric, while responding to the Christian Association of Nigeria in Kaduna, said there was need to forgive bandits for the country to have peace.
GUMI added that he never betrayed soldiers of Christian faith before the bandits when he visited them.
He noted that he was misunderstood by CAN because the video that went viral about his discussion with the bandits was distorted and the actual message was manipulated.
