Fani-Kayode, a former Minister of Aviation, has come under heavy fire from Nigerians after criticizing Sheik Ahmad Gumi.
Fani-Kayode, who recently defected to the All Progressives Congress, labeled Gumi a “venomous snake and a wolf in sheep’s clothing.”
He made the statement after Gumi kicked against the move to declare bandits as terrorists.
“Sheik Ahmad Gumi, the Rasputin of Arewa, whose father once said a Christian must not rule Nigeria & who himself said the FG must not declare the killer bandits as terrorists are worse than Abubakar Shekau & Al Barnawi. He is a venomous snake & a wolf in sheep’s clothing,” Fani-Kayode wrote on Facebook.
However, many Nigerians who commented on Fani-Kayode’s post stated that it was hypocritical to praise President Buhari and condemned Gumi.
Charles Ogbu noted that “It is the height of conscientious idiocy bordering on the fringes of lunacy for you to praise President Muhammadu Buhari who has REPEATEDLY and PUBLICLY demonstrated a soft spot for these terrorist bandits for reasons of ethnic affinity and still turn around to condemn Sheik Gumi who is obviously acting with the blessing of the same Buhari.
