Thursday, March 21, 2024 –Controversial Islamic scholar, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, has rubbished claims that some Nigerians are sponsoring terrorism in Nigeria.
The Federal government recently identified
15 entities including nine individuals and six Bureau De Change operators and
firms, allegedly involved in terrorism financing.
Reacting to the news, Sheikh Gumi who was
featured on Daily Trust X Space on Wednesday, said it’s only the Court of law
that has the right to declare anyone a terrorism financier.
“I think it’s high time the government took
the bull by the horns, come together to see how to redirect these people
(bandits)…
Now they are looking for N1 billion for
these children (kidnap victims) to be released. They financed themselves by
kidnapping. I think it’s rubbish to just frame your political opponents as
financing terrorism.
“o Nigerian will put his money in
terrorism, we’re beyond that. These people are financing themselves by taking
our children for ransom.
So, how can we say some people are
financing terrorism because there is a misunderstanding between them”.
