The claim made by Islamic cleric Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, that the Nigerian government is aware of the whereabouts and identities of all terrorists, has been echoed by activist politician Omoyele Sowore.
According to what Sowore said, the government has the power to eliminate all criminals and terrorists in an hour if it so desires.
“Sheikh Gumi is actually very smart,” Sowore told reporters in Abuja, despite popular belief to the contrary. There are other explanations for his intelligence, but he is religious and won’t tell you anything new.
Why do you believe the government is able to reach out to the kidnappers whenever there is a large kidnapping? All these terrorists are in bed with people in the government. As a result of having their phone numbers on file,
“If they contact one group in Niger, they will be provided with the contact information of another group in Katsina. This group will deny any wrongdoing and insist that Gumi is telling the truth.
“The Nigerian security authorities are aware of every significant terrorist and criminal; yet, kidnappers who perform as master of ceremonies at the inauguration of police commissioners in Nigeria are well-known among themselves. They have the wherewithal to eliminate all terrorists immediately.
