Gumi Speaks Again

Sheikh Ahmad Gumi says the easiest and safest way to end insecurity in the north is to negotiate peace with the bandits that have turned the region into a killing field.

Some state governments in the region have made it a policy to negotiate with bandits to surrender their arms in return for amnesty after years of killing thousands, and wreaking havoc.

Gumi himself has become a peace broker over the past few months, meeting with bandits in Kaduna and Zamfara to negotiate their peaceful surrender.
