Controversial Kaduna-based Muslim cleric, Sheikh K has lashed out at the political leadership in Nigeria, asserting that the country has a weak justice system.
Gumi made this remark while speaking on Monday at a peace-building symposium that was organised in Maiduguri as part of initiatives to reintegrate repenetant former Boko Haram insurgents into society.
‘Whoever has any interest in our country, we have made available for him soldiers he can conscript,‘ the cleric said.

‘So why do we leave our children uneducated? Why is education not for everybody? Why do we leave our population poor?
“Some Nigerians are riding private jets while some Nigerians don’t know where to put their children in school. There is social injustice. If you go to the court system, justice is not there. The fabric of power is broken down. So, the children are there to be used by anybody.”
Africa Daily News, New York reports that the Chairman of the Christians Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Borno, Bishop Mohammed Naga also attended the forum.
He faulted those railing against the Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket of the All Progressives Congress for the 2023 elections.
Bishop Naga said Nigerian Christians do not benefit from a Christian President.
‘And Muslims now ruling, what are we benefitting? We are looking for a saviour, a man who will take us out of our troubles in his country,’ he said.
Recall that Gumi, had recently expressed pity for the next president even as he submitted that Nigerians is suffering from ‘disabling diseases’ under the All Progressives Congress (APC) led administration.
The cleric asserted that Nigeria is suffering from diseases including leprosy, diabetes and HIV/AIDS.
Towards this end, he said the next president needs to be intelligent and supported by men with acumen, and not a ‘garagara’ person with an impulsive temperament that is after the praise of sentimental citizens.
