The Nation Newspaper No law in Nigeria forbids non-Muslim from becoming FCT minister - Rivers elite tell Gumi

Concerned elites in Rivers State have condemned claims by a popular Islamic cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi that it was wrong for PresidentGumi had called on Tinubu to remove Nyesom Wike as FCT minister if he wanted to be on the same page with him.

Okocha who alleged that the cleric incited the north not to be comfortable with the appointment of a non-Muslim to head Security Agencies in Nigeria, as none, order than a Northern/Muslim can be fair to all and sundry, accused the cleric of intending to expand the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria or amending it from its prescribed Secular State status, to a mono-religious State.

“These incisive attacks of Gumi as spread by his adherents, affront our One Nation-hood and so, we conclude that it is TREASONABLE. “What constitutes’ the hub in the characteristic features of a Federation, is the belief in “Unity in Diversity”. “The same could be concluded as the reason for his morbid hatred for The Hon. Minister of FCT, HE Chief E.N Wike.“Having lost in his hitherto lucrative business of negotiations of ransom between the abductors and abductees, Gumi feels badly bruised and therefore, anything goes.

“Not even the swift rebuttal of the orchestrated lies and blatant falsehood by the Executive Secretary of the FCTA and even the unequivocal denial of the Hon. Minister made meaning to the mischief-makers and naysayers.
