Sunday Igboho has criticized Islamic cleric Ahmad Gumi for his recent comments regarding the appointment of Southern Christians to key government positions by President Bola Tinubu.

Igboho alleges that Gumi’s remarks are motivated by his desire to re-establish negotiations with bandits.

Gumi, in his sermons, condemned Tinubu’s appointments and pledged to prevent him from securing a second term.
