Popular Islamic scholar, Sheikh Ahmed Gumi, has clarified that the religious bias in the Nigerian Army was between 2010 and 2015.

He explained that his earlier comments were misunderstood, blaming media reports for the misunderstanding.

The retired general noted that he had a good understanding of the Nigerian Army, adding that many things have not changed since he left the force.

In a clip, the islamic scholar was seen telling the bandits that soldiers are divided into Muslims and non-Muslims.

But the Nigerian Army cautioned Gumi against making divisive and disparaging utterances against the military institutions.

The army spokesman, Brig. Gen. Mohammed Yerima, while reacting to the video, said the army did not deploy its troops along ethnic or religious lines as stated by the cleric during his interaction with bandits.

Yerima in his statement on Monday titled, ‘Nigerian Army does not deploy its troops along ethnic or religious lines,’ admonished the cleric and other “opinion merchants” to exercise restraint and not drag the image and reputation of “one of the most reliable national institutions to disrepute.”

“I saw the Army’s response. What I will say is that there is a misunderstanding in the issues. When I speak about the religious issue in the Army, I am not referring to today’s Army.

“The issue is from 2010-2015 when some people were in-charge and a lot of bad things happened.

“It is during that time that there were bombings everywhere. It happened in Jaji and we lost a popular Muslim general. Even, I was saved by God because they planted a bomb for me,” Gumi told BBC while reacting to the Army’s response.

This iddiot again. Brainless set of people. Both army and gummi. Are all mad

When I speak about the religious issue in the Army , I am not referring to today ’s Army .







taqiyya sheihk

Anu Mpama have spoken

It was reported that this same Sheikh Gumi once incited —a later foiled— religious violence back in 2004.
And it took the intervention of Femi Adesina and others to douse the tension that was brewing.

How a fanatic as such now turned a mediator for this country and could go in to see bandits whenever he wants is something to pay attention to.

It should however not come as a surprise to the Nigerian army that such an inciting allegation was made by the so-called Sheikh.

Apparently, this is the same message he had passed not only to Boko Haram but Muslim Nigerian Soldiers who would in turn become traitors to their country and informant to the terrorist sect, thereby subjecting them to various ambushes

I saw the Army ’s response. What I will say is that there is a misunderstanding in the issues . When I speak about the religious issue in the Army , I am not referring to today’s Army.

Gumi is still saying the same thing, so who misunderstood you Sheik ?

and this man was a general , many christain sodiers must have dead behind close door . i weep for nigeria

Where are our dumbos friends who still believe in this country


Have you seen how waliki is relaxing in Yoruba police station while those who apprehended him would soon be jailed why he is freed.

If they told you people killing fulani terrorists is the best it would be as if we are talking to residents of Jupiter.


Hope you dumbos can also see how this Islamic Terrorist has the luxury of acting on behalf of Terrorists

Now the religious issue have permeated into both Civilian and the Army

Both Gumi and the Army can go to Hell

He is speaking of Army between 2010-2015 when a christian was the commander in chief.Shiek Gumi is an unrepentant terrorist.

It is a normal thing in Nigeria,.. say something today and deny it tomorrow on the excuse that you were misunderstood and blame the press for it...

Useless people.

This country is not balance

: talk is cheap

SHUT UP YOU THIS TERRORIST, SENSIBLE NIGERIANS AND NOT ZOMBIES SHOULD ANSWER ME , IF IT WERE A SOUTHERNER LETS SAY, IGBO,YORUBA,BININ,IJAW THAT MADE THE SENSELESS STATEMENT WILL THE FG LET THE PERSON FREE?

Oh Really? The Same way your followers misunderstand your utterances and then go on a Rampage maiming innocent Lives!

No..we understand you clearly

so what the spokesman for terrorists and Northern bandits is saying is that immediately after December 31st, 2015

Army and Nigerian institutions stopped thier religious hypocrisy

Even Satan, the father of Taqiya always claimed he was misunderstood and falsely accused from the beggining in his trickery to buy the souls of men.
Terrorists sympathizers will be no different.

For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speak.

Oh Really? An influential figure and Leader must always be careful of their utterances..

we understand ooo

Take it or leave it. Buhari tenure is for romancing with terrorists and killer Fulani heardsmen. We all are present, and we witnessed the nepotistic appointments, sky rocket corruption and fulanization

There was a Country.

People with their opinions sha.. I rest my case

Sheikh should learn when to keep queit. Its more honourable.
