Sheikh Gumi Alleges Abuja Security Sources Listed Him for Elimïnation

Islamic cleric Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has made the serious claim that sources within Nigeria’s security apparatus in Abuja informed him his name was listed for elimination alongside Boko Haram terrorists.

Gumi stated he received an early morning phone call from an unidentified source claiming his name was mentioned during a national security meeting. “They said I have been marked; that I will be eliminated,” Gumi reported. “Even American, they said they came to fight terrorists, so who are the terrorists? They are the ones.”

He leveled the blame for Boko Haram’s emergence at the United States. “They are the ones doing it – Boko Haram,” he alleged, also criticizing former U.S. President Donald Trump’s policies for worsening Nigeria’s security and social divisions.

Gumi accused foreign-backed narratives of falsely framing Christians as the sole victims and criticized Nigerian elites and scholars for their silence. He argued that no sovereign nation would accept foreign interference designed to divide its people.

Warning that inaction is harming the country, Gumi concluded, “You brought us hardship… This is the kind of situation we are in. It is dragging the country down.”
