Yoruba Council of Elders {YCE} and the Christian Association of Nigeria {CAN},on Monday, berated a northern Islamic cleric, Sheik Abubakar Gumi, over comments that undermine security of the country and occupation of the office of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory {FCT} by a Southerner and a Christian.
The Secretary-General of YCE, Chief Oladipo Oyewole and the Oyo State Chairman of CAN , Apostle Joshua Akinyemiju, in separate releases made available to The Guardian in Ibadan, carpeted the cleric for making inciting statement.
The Oyo State Chairman of CAN , Apostle Akinyemiju,said: ‘’The cleric, Sheik Gumi has continued to over flog the privilege of freedom of speech in Nigeria. He is fond of messing up the sensibilities of both successive Governments in Nigeria and Nigerians. One cannot really understand how he has continued getting along without questioning in spite of series of incendiary pronouncements from him.
‘’Anyone who concerned with the unity or oneness in the Country should know that security issue is the responsibility of all and no individual should be licensed to make statements that are capable of causing disaffection. He needs to know that the effectiveness of security apparatus in Nigeria has nothing to do with religion.
‘’The Government needs to call him to order publicly or openly at least for once so that the youth or any other segment of the Nigerian society will not one day capitalize on any of his vituperations to tamper with the prevailing peace in the Country. Promoting and maintaining peace and tranquility in any society should naturally be a task that must be done by all religious leaders’’.
On his part, Oyewole said Gumi is a proven associate of the operatives of Boko Haram should keep quiet.
The Secretary-General of YCE pointed out that Nigeria is greater than all of these.
Oyewole said: ‘’I have tapped into the ranting of the highly controversial Islamic Scholar Gumi per attached. Gumi spoke out of lack of information and knowledge!
‘’Those of us in Nigeria before the January 15, 1966 coup d’état in Nigeria knew that Nigerian political leaders tolerated each other greatly and lived together in harmony until a sector of the country decided to destabilize the origin of the state of the Nation as designed.
Each Region of the Federation was to develop on its own and contribute to the GDP at the Centre! Either because of envy or out of mere ignorance, trouble was allowed to escalate to the level that there was anarchy in the Western Region.
‘’The Region became was made ungovernable. Lives and properties were seriously hampered and endangered
The lives of women and their daughters were seriously exposed, impaired and their rights/privacy was trampled upon.
‘’Gumi is not correct because the records are there to prove how poor management and fear of the unknown caused some people to destroy the fundamental principle of allowing for growth!
‘’The Yoruba Council of Elders posits itself that accounts for the well-being; growth and welfare of Nigeria should be adequately and correctly rendered for posterity.
Only the truth will allow a Nation to make progress.
Gumi, a proven associate of the operatives of Boko Haram should keep quiet. Nigeria is greater than all of these. Therefore, Nigeria must and will rise again’’.
