Nigerian Terrorists Are Reasonable People, Shouldn’t Be Eliminated By Force – Gumi
Kaduna-based cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, has told President Donald Trump not to eliminate terrorists maiming, killing, and kidnapping innocent people for ransom by force.
OSUN DEFENDER reports that Trump last Friday designated Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern over alleged Christian genocide and threat to invade Nigeria to eliminate terrorists killing Christians.
Gumi said the terrorists are “listening and reasonable human beings” who should be pacified.
The Islamic Cleric stated this in an interview with VOP TV.
He said, “Myself, I’ve been trying to see how we can pacify these people (terrorists) and redirect them because they are human beings.
“They listen and reason, but if you say you want to use force against force, then you will compound the problem and make the thing dirty.”

Gumi said the U.S. army could not defeat terrorists and bandits terrorising Nigeria because they have failed to do so in Afghanistan and Syria.
“If they (the U.S. army) can cure and eliminate the terrorists, I will welcome them. But I know they cannot. They have fought for 20 years in Afghanistan, but they could not finish them. In Syria now, it is the same thing,” Gumi stated.
The Islamic cleric added, “These terrorists you see, it is not easy to come and drop bombs here and there and think you will finish them, because they have infiltrated the society. It is going to cause more damage. More Muslims and Christians will be killed if America drops a bomb in Nigeria.”
