Gumi
Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has dissociated himself from alleged statements and materials circulating online linking him with support for banditry in Nigeria.
Gumi, in a press statement issued in Kaduna on Saturday, described the reports as fake, manipulated and doctored by individuals and groups pursuing ethnic and sectional interests.
He said that some of his media interviews, public lectures and comments on insecurity had been deliberately misrepresented by certain internet content creators seeking sensational headlines and online traffic.
