Gumi asks Fulanis to get voters card

Controversial Islamic cleric, Dr. Ahmad Gumi has called on Fulani ethnic group to ensure they obtain their voter cards ahead of the 2023 general elections in the country. He said it became necessary to do so they can elect leaders who would provide good governance and protect their interest.

The Islamic cleric said this while presenting animals and foodstuffs to the families of Fulani that were affected by insecurity and the COVID-19 pandemic, organized by a pastoral group under the aegis of Bilital Marroobe Pastoralists Association of Nigeria (BILMPAN) in Kaduna.

Gumi in his statement also cautioned herdsmen, particularly those living in the forests against banditry and kidnapping. He reiterated the importance of their vote in the emergence of any credible leader in Kaduna as well as in the country.

“If we want our votes to matter and make a difference, we must work towards bloc voting in the next election. We should be ready to work as a team to succeed, he said
