BLOOD: Gumi Fights Buhari To Resign With Immediate Effect

President Muhammadu Buhari has been asked by an Islamic cleric, Ahmad Gumi to resign over the insecurity challenges in the country.

The cleric in a video noted that the same advice he gave to former President Goodluck Jonathan is the same he would give to President Buhari.

According to SaharaReporters, Gumi made this call while addressing a Muslim gathering.

Gumi said, “During the Jonathan era when blood was flowing, I criticized him because he was not doing enough. Why I blamed Jonathan with blood in his hands was because Boko Haram was putting bombs everywhere and the government was not doing enough.

“Because they killed under your regime, you’re responsible for that matter, if you have done your best, I can say Allah can forgive you, but if you are relaxed, no Allah cannot forgive you.

“So, the same thing now; the bloodshed now is more than the bloodshed during Jonathan’s regime. So, now, you judge yourself to be fair. Our religion is a religion of fairness. We are fair to ourselves. During Jonathan, when blood was flowing in churches, mosques, and streets, I said let him resign because he could not control it. He could not handle it. I said resign with immediate effect.

“When people are dying everywhere, and the President and governors are attending wedding ceremonies. That’s what I mean by I don’t care. It is either if I’m true to myself. As I called for the resignation of Jonathan, I should call for the resignation of President Buhari. With immediate effect and the government papers (media) should carry it also.

“Even Jonathan as bad as he was, he was more democratic. When he saw there was a problem, he relinquished power and he said I don’t want blood.”

The cleric noted that he has two options either which to apologize to Jonathan or to ask Buhari to resign. He said he was not left with a third option, insisting that Buhari should resign for not tackling insecurity.

“Now, I have one or two options. If I cannot tell my brother what I have told this man, then I should take an airplane from Abuja to Jonathan and say forgive me for castigating you in public. Either seeking an apology or castigating the President; there is no third option,” Gumi added.
