BOMBSHELL 💥 As FG Releases Names Of Terrorist Sponsors; See Explosive Details
Controversial Islamic scholar Sheikh Ahmad Gumi asserted that no Nigerian security agency possesses the authority to label individuals as terrorist financiers. He made this declaration when he appeared on X space hosted by Daily Trust on Wednesday night. Gumi questioned the legitimacy of the arrest of Mallam Tukur Mamu, a Kaduna- based publisher, and others suspected of funding terrorist activities in the nation.
Mamu has been detained by the Department of State Services (DSS) since his apprehension in Cairo, Egypt, in September 2022. Known for his role as a mediator between bandits and the kidnapped passengers from a Kaduna- bound train in March 2022, Mamu and his family were intercepted while en route to Saudi Arabia for a lesser Hajj. Subsequently, the Nigerian Government implicated Mamu and 14 others as suspected terrorist financiers.
In response, Gumi emphasized that only a court of law holds the authority to make such determinations, condemning what he deemed a premature judgment by security agencies. He urged for patience until the court makes its ruling, cautioning against media trials and highlighting Mamu’ s right to seek redress for any defamation if acquitted.
He said, ” Who declares someone a terrorist financer? Is it the court of law or a security agency? Security agency has no right to declare anyone a terrorist financier. The case is already in court, so why are they judging him on the pages of the newspaper? Once a case is in court, you allow the court to decide. ”
Addressing accusations directed at him, Gumi acknowledged his role as a public figure and affirmed his stance of engaging with all individuals who approach him. He compared his interactions to those of pastors who counsel individuals regardless of their background.

Is this guy bigger than Nigeria? what effrontery, if he were to be from the East his case would have been long forgotten, One Nigeria Indeed
Gumi got all this leverage simply because the government was afraid to arrest him… based on his ethnic/religious background….
Gumi attributed Mamu’ s arrest to a misunderstanding between him and the committee overseeing the release of kidnapping victims, reiterating the need for a fair trial.
Expressing concern over the treatment of Mamu and others in custody, Gumi criticized the use of intimidation tactics, equating it to terrorism. He called for swift resolution of Mamu’s case and urged the government to release him if found innocent. Gumi emphasized the importance of concluding the matter fairly and without tarnishing the government’ s reputation as it nears the end of its tenure.
In conclusion, Gumi urged adherence to due process and cautioned against unjust arrests, emphasizing the need for accountability and justice in addressing allegations of terrorism.
