Your Time Is Over, Get Ready – Lawmaker Fires Sheikh Gumi
A member of the Rivers State House of Assembly representing Port Harcourt 2 Constituency, Adoki Tonye Smart has slammed Sheikh Ahmad Abubakar Gumi over his comments against the Nigerian government and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Nyesom Wike.
Tonye Smart warned Sheik Gumi and his cohorts to refrain from further provocative and disparaging remarks and stop displaying animosity towards Southerners.
The lawmaker, in a statement on Saturday in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital, warned the controversial Muslim Cleric that the era of collaborating with bandits and criminals for kidnappings and ransoms was over.
He said, “That era of planning with bandits and criminals to kidnap and share ransoms with them is over. Some of these Northerners really believe that this country belongs to them. No wonder they saw it as their right for a northerner to take over from another northerner.
“For your information Gumi, that era is gone. A man that his state produces nothing for the country sits and asks for Wike’s sack as FCT Minister because he (Wike) received the Israeli Ambassador to Nigeria in his office.”
“Though we have been expecting this frustrating statement long ago, these bandits sympathisers can no longer hide their frustrations. That is why Gumi could not endure and have voiced out.
“FCT is built and maintained by the proceeds from NIGER DELTA. We have not complained. You want to enjoy our money but you don’t want us to be FCT Minister.”
