- Gumi has been meeting with various stakeholders as part of efforts to address the security challenge
Ahmad Gumi, renowned Kaduna-based Islamic cleric, on Sunday met with ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo in Abeokuta, Ogun state capital.
Kehinde Akinyemi, Obasanjo’s spokesman, confirmed the meeting.
“I am not there and the meeting is still going on,” Akinyemi said when asked what the meeting is about.
“It is not just the two of them present; it is stakeholders meeting holding at his residence here in Abeokuta.”
Ekohotblog gathered that the meeting may not be unconnected to the perennial and pervasive insecurity in the country.
Gumi has constantly implored the federal government to grant amnesty to bandits attacking residents across northern parts of the country.
He has repeatedly said the bandits should not be castigated and referred to as criminals if the country wants them to lay down their weapons.
