Popular Islamic Scholar, Sheikh Abubakar Ahmad Gumi has called on Nigerians to vote for those who will not fight bandit terrorists if elected president in 2023.
The Kaduna-based Islamic scholar made the call while delivering a sermon as the 2023 2023 general election draws closer.
Sheikh Gumi urged Nigerians to vote for leaders who will negotiate with bandits when elected into office.
He said the bandits were “our people,” and should be engaged for them to stop their illegal activities.
He said: “Don’t vote for those who will fight bandits. The fighters (bandits) are our people. So please vote for those who, after attaining power, will call and negotiate with our people (bandits) so as to give them what they want for peace to reign.”
