Special Adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina says bandits are going hellfire – in response to a statement credited to controversial Islamic cleric, Ahmad Gumi, who said bandits are going nowhere.
In his article on Thursday titled: “I like this pampering. Don’t you?” Adesina expressed his pleasure with the bombardment of bandits’ enclaves in northern Nigerian by the Nigerian Armed Forces, while pointing out that the criminals were afforded the chance to repent.
“Before they got to this sorry pass, they had the chance to turn a new leaf. Zamfara, Katsina, and many other states offered dialogue. The governments tried to negotiate with them. But they were contumacious. Like dogs fated for destruction, they refused to hear the hunters’ whistle. They filled the land with sorrow, tears and blood, ‘dem regular trademark’ (as Fela Anikulapo-Kuti would say). Now, the shoe is on the other foot,” Adesina opined.
“In the different evil forests, when the Nigerian Air Force strikes from the sky, the remnants of the evildoers not killed immediately attempt to flee. The ground troops then pick them off like flies. I say it again. One has never been prouder of our troops. They are cleaning up the country.
“Shocking and disconcerting, however, that in the middle of all these, you still hear words meant to discourage our gallant soldiers. A bandit-lover is on record as saying military offensive would not work, and that the bandits “are going nowhere.” True? False. They are going somewhere. And that is: hell.”
They can’t repent, because the crimes committed against innocent citizens won’t let them earn salvation.

Gumi has always been the bandits’ mouthpiece; we even hear that there are some northern elements that complaining that too many northern youths are being neutralized. these elements are the direct or indirect sponsors of the banditd; the government and some northern elites and the DSS know their abode but ethnic considerations have hitherto frustrated efforts to clean up the terrorists; but the north now stands the greatest victims; what an irony. It is i9n everybody’s intewrest that the nationneutraliz the vermin
U are right Sir, but as u know that Gomi is an bandits love n u are part of this administrative top profile what did u do about? Let the Authority do something about it
A bandit lover is a bandit and should be neutralized. Otherwise we have further proof that the Adesina and the government he served are the sponsors of banditry.
Femi don’t speak independently on this bandit matter. Mind you, you might be incurring the rot of your slave masters. They may not be on the same page with you.
What’s the difference between Gumi and Femi Adesina? Gumi is the northern bandit advocate, after all they are his stooges and weapons of societal disturbance while Femi Adesina is the government official bandits in uniform. They are both evils from opposite direction. Gumi is talking now because is religious adrenal are being depleted. When Igbo youths were massacred in their hundreds, armless and defenceless what did the two evils do?
How will you know ?. Is it now the time for you to answer him? After all this years?
Under Good luck Jonathan, they accused the then Chief of Army Staff of killing”too many northerners” in the name of fighting book haram.
Today Gumi is saying the same thing when the military has decided to fight back instead of sitting down and waiting to be killed as has been the case.
I heard that a Sheikh is like a Bishop in Christianity? If so, he must be a false Sheikh.
