Outspoken Islamic cleric, Ahmad Gumi has lambasted President Muhammadu
Buhari over the release of the mugshot of ex governor of Kaduna State,
Ramalan Yero, by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
The scholar stated that the president has lost support in the Southern
part of country, and that only the “ignorant North” still supports him.
“I was just shown the photo of former governor of Kaduna State holding
card, showing he committed offence.
“This is wrong. We must tell them the truth”, Daily Nigerian quoted him as
saying.
“He should have torn the card and fought them. Nothing will happen. Only
the court pronounces offence.
“Let me tell you this: The southerners have bidden bye to this
administration. It is only you…ignorant (Northerners supporting the
administration).
“Even democracy is not in practice as there is violation of human rights.
“If Buhari’s offence were not forgiven, he would not have become
president. The people forgave him.
“Let Buhari and (former President) Shagari be put on scale and see who
really stole public funds,” Gumi added.
