If Nigerians Don’t Want You, Please Go In Peace – Gumi Tells Jonathan

Respected Islamic scholar, Sheik Ahmad Gumi yesterday took a swipe on President Goodluck Jonathan when he accused him of being too desperate for power at the expense of the nation.
The cleric also accused “Jonathan’s people” as being behind the crises facing the country, said the bombings from October 1, 2010 to date were largely scripted play being acted out.

Gumi, who took to Facebook to pour out his anger, said Jonathan should kindly resign if Nigerians don’t want him.
He however added that despite all the challenges, Nigeria will still survive.

He said, “Yes, from the onset, Mr Goodluck was apparently in a struggle to grab power and to cling to power even if that is at the cost of innocent Nigerian lives. Well it turned out that his people were the culprits.
“Like Boko Haram, Nigeria can only boast of its success on its survival. We see despite heavy fatalities and injuries of thousands of people and the grounded economic life of the North East, the purported Boko Haram leader can only boast on his ability to prove he is still alive. Just like Boko Haram, Nigeria is real but unrealistic, naïve and self annihilating, why? Because those that lead the two phenomena are dehumanised of all human sensibilities. They trade blood for power!

“The mere survival of Nigeria as a unified entity is the only successful story in the 53 years of its independence. Mr Jonathan should know that power is no substitute for blood, i.e. you cannot spill other people’s blood to stay in power and remain flourishing.

You should ask Assad about that. You can call (General) Sisi in Egypt and ask him about that.
The psycho-trauma is enough to finish one’s life,” Gumi said.

He further said that nobody was safe in the country today. “Anybody can be attacked and killed, or framed up and arrested. You see or hear of law and order, it is only in books and the compromised newspapers and media. Journalism is dead, justice in the court of law is absent, intellectuals are neutralised, and the populace is largely left poor and uneducated.”

He said the late General Shuwa was gruesomely murdered under the very eyes of his army guards without resistance in Maiduguri and no military panel was set up to investigate the killing of such a national hero that fought to keep Nigeria a united country.

“Jonathan has only one option left for him. Let him conduct a free and fair election in 2015, from PDP primary elections to the national elections. Let him not be deceived by those wolves that want to push him to his expiration for their corrupt lifestyles. Please Mr Jonathan, if Nigerians don’t want you, please go in peace,” Gumi said.
